An Algarve Garden - 2022

It looks wonderful @Victoria, and I'm glad to see Munchkin is taking her medicine, I hope she's better.

 

All ready for visitors ..

 

Your visitors will have a lovely time I'm sure @Victoria

 

The new setup sat the six of us comfortably ...


J got all the lighting sorted which looks fantastic ...






... and the path lit for entry and exit to the house (the trug was removed of course)...

 

All looks really nice Victoria.

 

Thank you Michael and Pete. We are very pleased with the results after a Summer of upheaval but I can't take any credit for it ... except for the floral aspect, which I guess is the icing on the cake.

 

Beautiful to look at those images Vicky,..everything seen in the night views is perfect,..i am really pleased for you both after the long journey to get there

 

Thank you Philip ... we are back to our little bit of magical Paradise in the country.

 

Looking lovely Vicky, I can imagine sitting out there with a glass of JD when the suns just gone down

 

Thank you Flumpy. I like a Rum and Coke, more settling on the tummy.

Now the works are virtually complete,some garden photos ...

Crinum had not bloomed after nearly nine years, Crinum asiaticum (Spider Lily) my Sister brought me from Florida is blooming!

 

The air/heat unit has been installed in The Baffa ...

Now all the furniture has got to go back in place again.


J is not happy with how the trellis now sits and will box in the condenser with trellis.

J is working on wood paneling inside The Baffa ...
