Show off your garden.

Hi Jungle Jane, yes we did, I bought 20 for £60 delivered , the guy sorted out some nice ones for me . Hubby then cut them up and nailed them together, I painted them , then I used an old memory foam matress topper that I 'd had for years in the cupboard -couldn't use it as it made you too hot ! I cut that up and went to charity shops and bought some kingsize quilt covers - used that to cover them. I also bought the pillows from either bootmarkets or charity shops- but only ever spending £1, and the back part is made from old exercise mate, from charity shops. It did cost me a new sewing machine tho, as mine broke halfway thru !!! LOL

 

JJ, Allan, I have a rotary washing line, when it's not in use it's stored in my shed.

 

Not very impressive but it's my wee corner of the universe!

 

at least its somewhere to sit and maybe grow some vegies

 

Unfortunately not able for veggie growing these days due to poorly back accompanied by old age probs! Do have a few fruits that practically look after themselves..lol!

 

yeah I have an apple tree that grows an abundance of apples and I barely even look at the thing. I didn't even get 1 apple off it last year though, probably coz of the early heatwave we had in march.

 

My gardens all doing well, keeping ahead of the weeding after the rains. I have almost 3 acres of land. We have several gardens. In the spring alone a total of 60,000 bulbs come up. Have 14 species of hydranga, many varites of hosta from the little wee one "baby bunting" to spear shaped, heart shaped, giant blues, yellows etc. Mock orange bushes, weigleas, heath and heathers, phlox, astilbies, spirea, rhodos, bee balm, joe pye weed, calacarpias, fothergills, magnolias, jap maples, dogwoods, mexican poppy,canada lily, and other lilies, blackberry lily, sedums, and many others I am forgetting right now.

 

So I notice! Most envious!!!
