More images/progress to come soon.
Thanks, yes it is satisfying looking back at pictures from two or three years ago to see the progress. Amazing how much some of the shrubs have...
Few more pics of this year's work.The bed to the left was a bit of a waste of space and not really to our taste, we also wanted to extend the...
Persistence is the key unfortunately. Weed killer will help, as will cutting it back. But the main issue is the mass of rhizomes. You really need...
Ohhh just noticed all of the pics have been restored :) Now we have been very busy with the garden this year! Some areas have been completely...
