These are a few pictures of how my garden is looking at the minute, the weather has been awful as I’ve finished work most days for the last two weeks but yesterday evening was pleasant so I could go out with my camera. Please come for a quick stroll around.

Your garden is beautiful....and it has a great layout, Annella. You must spend hours keeping it looking so nice, despite having had so much rain recently.

The weather has been against me lately Whistonlass, Wet weekends and wet after work. I've been cutting the grass when I can but not much else. I had big plans for some of my borders so hopefuly September will stay mild and dry up a bit. Glad you like it :-))))

It is well deserved Annella, this garden is a credit to the work you have put into it, if mine looked half as good, I would be chuffed! lol!

9 Sep, 2010

 

Looks fabulous Annella. Nice green lawn and still plenty of colour. I couldn't see a weed in sight.

Thank you Linda, the slope is very weedy but too wet to get to them at the mo.
Hello Bluespruce! How are you? :-))

Beautiful! It shows the dedication and hard work that goes into it's upkeep. Thankyou for the visit and the company.I am doing my best not to be envious of such a lovely sized plot lol

9 Sep, 2010

 

Don't be envious Grannysue it can be a pain to keep up with it. I work on one 'room' at a time bit like in the house :-))))

9 Sep, 2010

 

They say your garden is an extension of your house Annella, at the mo mine looks like the spare room with all the junk in it !! LOL. Yours is a delight and soooo neat and tidy.

lovely garden Annella...great photos

9 Sep, 2010

 

Thanks Elsiemay :-))

9 Sep, 2010

 

This is so lovely, makes me wish I wish I wasn't so lazy. You obviously have an 'eye' for design and everything is so green and lush. A treat to look:-))

9 Sep, 2010

 

Hi Annella, I'm fine, hope you are also ok ?.. :) x

9 Sep, 2010

 

Why thank you Ba, design doesn't really come in to it, the garden is awkward with slopes and a lot of shade so it's more down to what will grow. Plants are constantly on the move to find them better homes and the ones that do well get to stay and are multiplied. There are no big sunny borders or many flat areas come to think of it, I would love to plan my planting like you have but it never works that way here. :-))))))

9 Sep, 2010

 

I am Blue thank you :-))

Really lovely photos Ann. The garden is absolutely beautiful. what about that deep pink rose as well....stunning! The area at the garage is one of my favourite bits...similar feel to my japanese corner as you said recently. That eleagnus is really getting me interested in getting one and I never used to like them at all. it looks so healthy and bright! Your garden has inspired most of my planting this year Ann and got me looking after the lawn better! Thanks :))

9 Sep, 2010

 

Your garden is lovely Ann, in spite of the weather. It looks well cared for :o)

9 Sep, 2010

 

Thank you Mr very dashing man of mystery who a lot of stars look like, Hywel :-))

9 Sep, 2010

It's a clematis that Karen sent me, it came all the way from Scotland in a plastic milk bottle Ba :-))))

10 Sep, 2010

 

Look forward to seeing it in flower Annella, but being impatient, I'll google it:-)

11 Sep, 2010

 

Looks lovely, it says it flowers 3 months from sowing, can that be right? :-)

11 Sep, 2010

 

Erm, well, not in Scotland! I sowed the seed in spring and it has buds on it now, so that's still good going?

11 Sep, 2010

 

Mine has buds on it Ba :-))))

12 Sep, 2010

 

Thank you Anchorman & Stickitoffee, I spend as much time in the garden as possible but it all depends on work and the weather :-)))

13 Sep, 2010

I just love your back garden ... and it's great to get to see some photos of it again. So much great planting ... how lucky you are to have this beautiful garden ... and of course well done on all your hard work! My favourite part has to be the slope ... but it is all terrific.
