Some of my garden


Wondered if you would like to see some of my garden (which I have spent a good part of the day in)

This is my little veggie patch. You can see the onions and just make out the lettuce seedlings



This is the wildlife pond (and where we have buried little Dino)



One of my flower beds (the one with most colour just now)



Like my garden swing I got off of freecycle?



my wee greenhouse



Can you make out the bumblebee?



My pieris



The lovely plant Kazz gave me a while back

Lovely colours Alex - all neat and tidy too! I'm impressed you got that nice garden swing off freecycle. Put your feet up and enjoy!

Re: Some of my garden


How lovely Alex...... you are well organised there

That swing would be too tempting for me to sit in instead of gardening!!

That looks lovely - I really love the colours. The wildlife pond is a lovely idea, one that is on my list of things to do.

The swing is great - always amazes me the things that you can get fron freecycle.

Re: Some of my garden


I do so enjoy seeing other peoples gardens! Looking good, Alex, the pieris and wallflower are lovely; and like the pond also. Love the swing, that's what we call a glider here; I'd spend too much time in it instead of gardening!

Re: Some of my garden


Thanks all

i am really enjoying being out there just now. The next project is to get the area around the swing cleared. OH currently dumps all his fishing nets and bike bits out there (as you may have noticed!). They WILL be shifted and I'm keeping my eyes open for some gravel to put down out there.
