A giant invasive plant known as “Millennium Madness” sprouted worldwide last year. It was particularly bad in the United States and positively egregious in the New York metropolitan area. And, as if Millennium Madness was not bad enough all by itself, there were rumors that it was infested on a grand scale with the dreaded Y2K Bug. While professionals in a host of countries spent months trying to think of ways to eradicate the Y2K Bug, ordinary people were rumored to be aiding the rapid growth and spread of Millennium Madness by watering local specimens with vast quantities of bottled water that they had stored in their basements.

If you’ve been scrolling through your TikTok feed, ooh-ing and ahh-ing over charmingly layered decor styles, you’re not alone.
Millions of views don’t lie—we spotted a new home aesthetic that’s taking over both rooms and social feeds: traditional eclecticism.
To learn more about this viral decor style, we spoke with Heather Goerzen, design director and lead interior designer at Havenly. She claims traditional eclecticism as one of her favorite new design aesthetics, and it’s easy to see why.

Think of traditional eclecticism as the Nancy Myers aesthetic. Imagine living on the set of «Father of the Bride,» «The Parent Trap,» or «The Holiday.» If these are homes out of your dreams, then it's time to give this layered, cozy aesthetic a try this winter.

Then, with a jolt of eclectic style, the aesthetic gets a much-needed twist that Goerzen says feels unique, innately personal, and seriously compelling.

“Eclectic design, as a rule, follows no rules,” Goerzen says. “Rather, it’s magic that’s found in the mix of influences.”
Blend historical touches, whether ornate molding or framed photos of your grandparents, with modern elements. Pair bold color with plenty of pattern play, perhaps through wallpaper or upholstery. Traditional eclecticism is all about seamlessly integrating various styles and pieces you love with a carefree,

Gardens to visit in New South Wales and Queensland, Australia
Last September my husband and I fulfilled a long-held dream of visiting Australia, when we decided to take a road trip from Brisbane to Sydney. When you look at the map, our trip marks only a tiny slice of this massive country, but we knew we wanted to take it slowly and really soak up the countryside and enjoy the places we did have time to see.

Variegated plants: our top 10 to grow
While flowers are so often fleeting, foliage will keep a garden display going for many months. And this is especially true of plants with variegated foliage, splashed yellow, cream or white. It can induce one of those ‘Marmite moments’ – you either love it or hate it – but the choice is so wide that there is surely a variegated plant to suit all tastes and every location. These plants can be used to great effect to illuminate a shady spot, add contrast to an otherwise green backdrop, act as a focal point or provide year-round structural interest. Try one of our ten favourites and you may well be converted.

New year gardening: ‘It feels like everything is shifting’
There are lots of words that Irish gardeners could use to sum up the year that was 2023. “Wet” is certainly high on the list, given the record levels of rainfall experienced in most parts of the country from late summer onwards as well as the badly waterlogged state of many soils.
