Re: Your Garden Pics..


Thank you Mags, Pretty Kitty, Tom Cat and Az!

We are just begining Autumn here with the nights getting cold but no frost yet. YET. We live on the shores of Lake Erie so our warmer weather season is a bit longer than those just a few block away from the Lake.

You want more pictures? That is very sweet! OK.....here's some more.

Just a decorative fountain which is more of a bird bath.



---------------------------------------------------------------------

The children's swing 'A' frame was transformed into a place to hang some of our orchids.

Lake Erie shore line in winter.

Magnolia anyone?




There's a bit more of my garden. I am pleased you enjoyed the first pics.

Your garden is so gorgeous C3D. Love the idea of hanging your pots on the children't swing! I adore Magnolia, I have a Magnolia tree in my garden and when it blooms it is my pride and joy

Absolutely beautiful C3D!!! I never tire of looking at garden pics. What a brilliant idea of using the swing as a plant pot holder

Re: Your Garden Pics..


I've posted these 'on the other side' but will put them on CP for anyone who mght be interested.

This is the transformation between a tiny scraggy bit of ground behind the house to our very pleasant and very very easy maintenance makeover. The decking etc is supposed to be non bird friendly but we have hundreds of birds in the hedge and I keep the bird-bath full so they can get a drink

1. Before

2. Before

3. - 14. various stages of work and the finished (very sterile looking) product. Note the cats and late dog getting in on the act! It's much softer now with various planting and tubs.













Here's the bird bath in use on a gloomy day (excuse washing!)


And here is a furniture set we've recently purchased

and after 'treatment'

and here's Tizzie enjoying the sun


Sorry there's so many. Hope you find it interesting. I'd advise anyone with a tiny space to do something similar to maximise the use and minimise the work. I would love to have a couple of acres and leave lots wild etc.........but I haven't, so make do with our tiny suntrap!

PS Love everyone else's pics - more please!
