CONNIE'S AMAZING GARDEN PART ONE.......

That is the most gorgeous garden ever!!! love that raised bed - tried to get mine like that - and the pond is heavenly - gorgeous bamboo, shame the gunnera gone - love that plant but it is so awesome!!! Had to add to favs

wow .................. hurry up with the next one !! . very sunny looking .

What a beautiful garden,and what an eye for colour and design..so lucky to have a large garden to be able to do this..I love the Heuchera's against that blue wall,and the beach effect with those posts and rope hand rails..just awesome..:o)

Wow!! Now that's a fascinating, well maintained and beautiful garden. I love that blue-sky wall! Is this a friend of yours Dotty, or an NGS garden...or both!? Thanks for showing it!

Beautiful but it makes me wish my premium bonds would come up :) I love the blue walls but don't know if I would have the courage (or imagination!) to tackle something like this. A real treat to see - looking forward to the next blog.

Yes Gee, those statues look quite expensive. I often fancy a statue or ornament, but I can never bring myself to pay that much money for just an ornament for my garden!

Wow! I could spend all day looking around that garden. Some people are genius, to see what can be done, & by the sounds of it still looking forward to improve, not that I can see how you improve on this garden. Amazing x

Wow from me too,certainly brightened a dreary January day, beautiful garden, looking forward to the next installment :-))

And a Wow from me!! Fantastic, wonderful, beautiful and totally amazing garden, it looks so tranquil in every corner.Fab, Fab, Fab.

I would just like to add another WOW !!!!!

What a wonderful garden! Places to be for every mood! Fantastic!

Beautiful garden........bet it was very hard to leave.

oh wow and double wow, magnificent.

Amazing garden DD, the design and colour, the plants, pots, love that bamboo, Amazing..

A beautiful garden ,there's so much of interest in it ,she is a very brave lady I'm not sure that I would have been brave enough to take a pot of paint into the garden like that but it works ! is this where you were inspired to have your chinese area Angela ?

Love every thing about it except the Blue Paint calming it is not, for me it overpowers the garden around it,It would have to go.

lovely garden and so well maintained, not sure about the blue wall, a bit blue for me, im a more neutral coloured person haha, but love the pond area very much, cant wait to get my new pond in and maybe this will help, japanese style is cool :o))) look forward to next blog Dotty x

Now that is a fantastic garden. love the blue walls and the way she has used the rope over the wood. looking forward to the next instalment

That lady could bottle her creativity and imagination and make a fortune! and nerve, too, come to that - how many people, having thoguht of a blue wall in the first place, would go through with it? It's not to everyone's taste, but it's certainly a striking feature - love the way it bends and curves to almost-enclose small areas.

lol you've got us agog for Part 2!

Wow from me as well ,love the Heuchera in that raised bed with the blue wall, which I really like :-))

Thanks to all for your lovely comments, I thought you would like it, I knew the blue would not be to everybody's taste, but it does work in this particular setting, there are still areas that Connie is working on, the tropical which I know will knock your socks off when she plants up this summer, she is a very talented lady and it is a pleasure to have her as a friend........the odd thing is, she loves our garden which is so totally different from hers, that's gardening for you!!
The second part is on now.......

lol say no more!

Although I `m not taken with the blue, I do think its fantastic and would love a wander around all the different rooms...

Wow, that garden is out of this world...Well done Connie,its beautiful, looking forward to the 2nd part.

Isn`t it great when people have the courage of their convictions, this is one very talented lady. Although for me the blue wall is a tad too far for others ists the bees knees and this is what gardening is all about. Can`t wait to see the next instalment.

Although not my style (lazy and scruffy) of gardening I can appreciate the the love and care which has gone in to this beautiful garden. It's fantastic being able to see all different types of gardens on here and I would love to wander round it and and take ideas from it to put in my own. Your friend Connie is a very talented gardener :-)

Oh how absolutely wonderful. I love every bit of it.

What a delightful garden ... I don't think I could live with the bright blue wall either ... but the planting is wonderful ... thanks for sharing this, Dotty ... :o)

i could look at this garden all day! just beautiful.
