Why I like herbaceous.

Wow! You've certainly worked hard on it @silu and knowing it's a large garden, its looking great and is a credit to you in such a short space of time.

I know crazy paving is not everyone's cup of tea but I like the way it blends with the borders in your pictures above.

 

The paving is getting on for 50 years old and bits are quite mossy/lichened (I don't think lichened is a word!) so that sort of helps to soften the cement/council car park look @Sheal. Ok so I have worked pretty hard at getting the garden in some sort of shape but it's really the plants that should take the credit. Most of mine are so obliging and do their thing despite me, the weather, deer and anything else that is thrown at them!

 

That looks fantastic @silu What a transformation. I'm not a fan of crazy paving either, but it does blend in and looks good.

 

Breathtaking @silu

 

That's very kind to say such lovely things about my recent project in part of my garden. Honestly with a bit of hard work and great plants it is money for old tarry rope. If you saw my pitiful efforts with Broad and French Beans this year you'd see I'm no gardening expert, Tomatoes are a little better but won't be winning any prizes either. I'm still green about the gills at @wiseowl and his gorgeous Cauliflowers, I will be attempting to emulate (not a hope) those next season but will have to pester wiseowl about how to get results like his and give it a go.

 

@silu That is such a stunning transformation. WOW!

You really do need to come and move in with me for a year. Have you taken any out for division this year?

 

Stunning @silu any pics yet this year.
