Hello
Attached is a very recent photo of me wearing my Genus trousers  - I was planting with the garden designer Juliette Sargeant - working on a new garden at a hospital in Shoreham, West Sussex.  The garden will be welcoming veterans and patients.
I love my genus trousers as they are perfect for bulb planting at this time of year and the pockets are extremely helpful to hold my secateurs.  The knee pads are a luxury built in feature. 
Thank you
Kate
