Your garden is really beautiful, @Busy-Lizzie. Lovely colour combinations!

I think your seating area looks lovely, and is well positioned around the tree. Just a point to ponder - would you want to leave the sides open? I...
Just got back from a week away and there is horsetail everywhere, front and back, along with the UK’s largest collection of rosebay willowherb. I...
