[IMG]I'll be changing the border along the back for next year, and I'm still toying with the idea of something central, though I also like the...
A quick update. This has been a lot of fun and it looks lovely.[IMG]
The house turns into a greenhouse at night. I'm putting the plants outside during the day as much as I can and when the frosts have gone I'll pot...

A quick update. I decided to focus on the front garden for now. It's smaller and south facing so a bit easier for a novice. The back also has the...
Thank you everyone. I've had a look on google earth and it was very informative. I wish I'd had a proper look before I started this!The dark...
Thanks. Yes, I'm hoping to pick up a little hedgehog house tomorrow and if I can lift the fence alittle to make gaps (before finally planting a...
http://s952.photobucket.com/user/sniffysnuffles/library/?sort=2&page=1Here is how it started. I'm going to update it as it develops. It's going...
Wow! That's extremely helpful. Thank you. I thought I was going to have to dig up concrete and fit the drainage pipes to the drain, and it's...
They might have been part of a border or something at one point, but at the moment they're quite randomly spaced on the lawn and I'm not really...
Thanks for your reply. We moved in just before Christmas and have no idea what was in the garden prior to that. Odd things just keep appearing but...
Both patches of 'almost' daffies are in sunny spots, and the other gardens around here are full of cheery yellow, but the ones in ours came up a...
Does anyone know where I can buy some of this that doesn't break the bank? Nowhere local that I know of stocks it and the online ones I can find...
That's inspiring. Thanks for the photos. I love what you've done so far.
Thanks. I was thinking of a dwarf fruit tree, maybe plum. One that gives blossom early then fruit later, so there's colour and a wildlife home for...
We used to have a small north facing paved yard. We did very little with it but next door turned theirs into a beautiful patio covered in pots...
My second question is - I'd like a central focal point. It's a fairly small area - bit enough for a small fruit tree. I'd really like to put...
Things are coming along. I will try to post pictures later. I'm digging up the front lawn to sow cornfield flowers (mostly poppies this year for...
Thanks. My father in law said the same thing happened in their garden too. It's making it hard work but a lot of fun and if we get enough bricks...
There are a lot of bricks about 6" under the grass. That could explain the drainage problems. I'm digging them out at the moment.I'm hitting...
