The Garden Ready For This Evening's Group Visit

its all looking great andrew i bet your group visit thought so to,, im loving your pond :o))

lovely interesting garden with a fantastic pond area. Its nice to see the views as well as the plants

Your garden looks really lovely Andrew - would love to be able to come and see it - went to Spritzhenrys today (have done a blog already) What a great site this is - gardens like yours and Spritzs are an inspiration to all us newbies

Am sure your visit was a great success

It looks lovely Andrew a credit to you.......

Oh how fabulous is that. Love it all, shrubs, trees, paths, and pond. Wonderful.

Lovely Photos Andrewr im glad it all went well did u sell any plant this time ?

its an inspiration to us oldies too. lovely plant combinations Andrewr.

What a fantastic garden!! How many times do you hope to open it this year Andrew? It's hard work opening by "appointment" isn't it? I used to open mine over June and July, for evening groups....it was exhausting!

Oh my word thankyou Andrew for sharing the photo's of your lovely garden.

Thanks for the peek into your garden - it's lovely.

It's such a lovely garden - so many pretty plantings. The pond area is a stunner and so that rose bush. Would enjoy a little wander along those pathways! There's such a lot to see and enjoy - great job.

Thanks for all your generous comments.

Jacques - the sale plants are always on display but it was a small group (just 12 people) and I only sold three plants

Crazydi - I have one general opening this year on August 9th and then three groups booked for two days later! Apart from this evening's visitors, that is all I have booked unless I get any more requests

I'm always fascinated by your amazing collection of plants and it's lovely to see some of the beautiful layout.

Really wonderful garden! :-)

Lovely Andrew enjoyed looking round your garden, & i bet your group enjoyed it aswell.

*Sigh* i am very jealous, what a beautiful garden.

Good luck with your August openings as well Andrew...your garden is a delight :)

It looks lovely Andrew, your guests will appreciate all of it.

Looks really good Andrew, just a shame your visitors were not so inclined to put their hands a little deeper into their pockets to purchase a few more plants.

Andrew, it's beautiful.

Thanks for this, Andrew - I always enjoy looking at your beautiful garden. I am waiting until after the 11th to write the blog, but I have commented elsewhere that it was a very successful day.

Lovely photos! :-) I'm glad it went well - apart from the plant sales, that is!

Your garden looks beautiful and so natural too.

Looks super - well done!!

it looks stunning Andrew. im running round to get mine ready for next saturday

Let's hope the weather improves, Sandra!

fingers are crossed...

Difficult typing like this, isn't it! lol.

You are so lucky to have such a good sized garden to be able to keep all those wonderful and unusual plants in, it looks beautiful, would love to see it.

Great garden Andrew; not just beautiful flowers but different forms and textures-a well balanced garden.What is that lovely rose?

Lovely garden Andrew, I love your pond, i'd just should your
picture to my husband, we would like to build a raised pond, simaler to yours, thanks for showing us you lovely
garden.

Rbtkew - do you mean the dark rose in the third photo?
If that's the one it is 'Cardinal de Richelieu'

Dottyd - the garden is open under the National Gardens Scheme on Sunday 9th August this year. I also take 'by appointment' bookings and can offer a guided tour for private visits

Andrew thanks for that......

: )) wow

Very pretty really enjoyed my visit. Thank you Sue

I like the lay out of your pond can you tell me 3rd picture down you have a purple rose I bought one 2 yrs ago and I dont have the name of it are there more than one kind as of yet it has not flowered but this year looks hopeful as it has grown better this year than last it was covered in wax when I bought it.

Morgana - the rose is 'Cardinal de Richelieu' - there should be a close-up photo of it under the 'Garden' tag on my home page (on page 5 I think)

Thank you Andrew
