    The trees look like some sort of conifers, the large flowering shrubs look like Rhododendrons. Lovely garden - are those real doves/chickens around the bird bath?

    Welcome to GC, thats a lovely garden to go with your new home. Probably the best thing to do is get a bit closer to the plants and take a few more photos...stand 10 foot away from what you intend to photograph...post those shots and you will I'm sure get a much clearer response of what you have planted.

    Thank you all for replying,
    I will get some closer pics.

    One thing I did notice was the trees are not as green as they were in that old picture. If trees start to brown does this mean they are dyeing. I will get some more pictures.


    Thanks:gnthb:

    Very nice looking garden indeed. The tall tree on the left looks like a Cedrus Deodara.

    Great looking garden! :thumb:
