My garden

love your cat scarer! does it work??
Are they tulips? It's all looking nice and neat Fonzie
Do you have plans to grow anything up the trellis? Thats a good idea to have round your seating area.

 

I made the cat scarer myself, and no it dosen't work!
Yes they are tulips amongnst other plants.
This picture is a good few years old I'm affraid and there has been some changes.
The cat's gone, I did have a Honeysuckle 'Halliana' growing up the back and front trellis, but didn't warm to them so they were rid of.
In the square in the lawn I have a Cordyline about six feet tall and four foot wide now, oh and a cross the shingle I have an arched bridge that spans it perfectly that is the same colour as the trellis. (Autumn gold)
And the large area, where the table and chairs reside, I put decking on and stained it dark oak to contrast with the autumn gold staining of the
table and chairs.

 

dont tell me - autumn gold wilkinson wood stain? thats the colour i got - good choice
you made the cat yourself? - well done, and no i didnt think they worked, that wouldnt scare mine anyway
you'll have to take an updated picture, the decking sounds fab.

 

Looks good Fonzie! Be nice to see updated pics...

 

I will get some pics done soon of garden. I thought I'd mention the decking, which covers 30 by 10 feet,and cost a total of �£180 including stain.
I used cheap wood instead of the decking boards used normally. I'm right chuffed with the finished product.
It's not of a builders quality and I'm no chippy, but I'm satisfied!

 

Hi Fonzie, the garden looks great, so can't wait to see your improvements! Ive just had decking done and I love it.

 

Thanks Mef. When we get a dry day I'll take a pic of presant day garden. I've got the camera and the film, but not the weather!
