My garden

2nd time trying to do this, aaahhhhh:D

Right here is my garden. Pity I didn't have any 'before' shots. Anyway, I know it's not a patch on all of yours but it's really good for us, believe me:rolleyes:

This is the garden around March.


Couple of views now, bit out of order, sorry.



Joyce digging! she loves to jump in, lay & hid toys in this crocosmia.

By the bins.


Just to prove there are some flowers trying to come through!




This is the forsythia after I pruned it. My first time:o What do you think?


By back door

 

Nice, nice! Are you going to keep all your plants in tubs or is that just an interim thing?

I LOVE nasturtiums - but they get so full of blackfly ....

 

A lovely job borrowers,:thumb: is'nt amazing how a bit of colour makes all the difference. I love your little wheel barrows, and your doggie is'nt a bit camera shy.:D 02

 

Thank you daisees & 02.

The pots are for good. I can't cope with the weeding so we are trying to gravel everything - not the best solution but certainly better than it being overgrown with weeds.

I want some more but hubby is shaking his head. I have one more large one & 3 small ones left but am going to put mirabilis & cerinthe in them, that are ready now. Only my 2nd year of gardening so am learning bit by bit. Isn't it strange how you (one) thinks in years once you start gardening I'm planning different things for next year already!

Thanks again.

cheers

 

Sandra, your garden is Lovely, I was expecting it to be full of weeds, by the way you describe it! Its so neat:thumb: And for it only being your second year, youv'e done a fantastic job. I love your Forsythia, and your new corner Look Fab..Dee..

 

Thanks mate,
Just noticed the titles/descriptions are out a bit too! Oh well, you get the idea.

Thanks Dee, i would love some decking like yours - another thing to nag about, lol. Actually we have to get the garage roof done this year cos it's really flooding in there. Not that we can fit the car in the garage: it's full of dirt (the gardening stuff we have removed), gardening implements, a freezer & all other bits! What do people do without this dumping spot?

cheers

 

A really lovely garden and so very tidy.
I too am pretty new to the gardening lark and am learning and also planning things for the next year already.

 

The Shed Sandra, I cant walk into mine, its that bad:( hubs been working overtime, so his first saturday off we will get stuck in

 

Looks great borrowers - I really like all your pots (nasturtium and sweet william way ahead of mine!) and the blue fencing etc. Your pruned forsythia looks excellent - very neat, like the rest ofthe garden! Good job!

 

Sandra you have been a dark horse haven't you?

Here I was thinking you had a really tiny plot and messy too and what do you go and do but put your pictures up showing a nice sized garden,really clean and tidy too!

I know what you mean we have to hide our cr*p behind the greenhouse not lucky enough having a garage at this house although like you at our old house that's all we put in ours as well just junk..... thank goodness for the garages eh?:D Hel.xxx.

 

Thanks Helen, i do think it's small. I'd like one about twice the size, just imagine how many pots I could have then.

I really don't know how people get their cars in garages, lol.

cheers

 

Is that what a garage is for - Cars??? I thought it was a personal dumping grounding jsut in case you should find a use for something.

Your garden looks fantastic - I haven't seen such a variety of pots/containers for a long time.

Cheers

 

Your garden looks great and I love the blue fence! :thumb:

Garages are great for storage, all being well you can get more in there LOL We've not been able to access ours for over a year, since we moved in :o Definitely time to try and get something sorted with it

 

Looks great borrowers, nice and tidy, minimal maintenance for you, some colour and interest also.

And somewhere for the doggie to run round too !
