My garden pre holiday

44 comments


As I am going to be away for a week starting tomorrow, I thought I would take a few pics of my garden before I go. Things change on a daily basis now don’t they. I know I am going to miss a few things as they come out, and my runner beans are about an inch long now, so hoping they will still be ok when I get back. I have a lot of Fuchsia’s that are going to burst open in the next day or two as well. Never mind, can’t have everything, and I am sure I won’t miss much.

I know, I don't really want to go, but I need a little break, and I'm sure I will be 'itching to get back'

Thanks. It will be great, as I am going with an old school friend whom I don't see often, so we will have lots to catch up on.

Do you get someone to water for you while you're away?

8 Jul, 2010

 

Yes my next door neighbour will water all the pots, and also the plants in my greenhouse. Then I do it for them when they are away, its a good arrangement as we are both 'garden mad' so I know they will be well looked after.

What a beautiful garden :o). There will be plenty of the summer left to come after you get home, so you'll still be able to enjoy it.
Have a great time :o))

Thanks Hywel, you are right of course, Have you seen my pic of the misnamed Fuschia ? I was wondering if you might know what it is.

8 Jul, 2010

 

I haven't seen it. I've not been here today. I'll have a look now.

8 Jul, 2010

 

It's so pretty - aren't you lucky to have a neighbour to water things for you - especially in this weather! Have a lovely holiday. :-))

8 Jul, 2010

 

Thank you Spritz. Yes I am lucky, and I know it. All my neighbours look out for me, including a young lad across the road who looks after my car, pumps the tyres and checks everything. Thats what you get when living in a village I think,

8 Jul, 2010

 

Yes - I'd agree with that. If only our nearest neighbours would be ...shall we say...a little more helpful, it would make such a difference. Never mind - there are others not too far away who help out. It's also lovely to know everyone, isn't it. They keep an eye on things if we're out or away - and we do the same.

8 Jul, 2010

 

Exactly. If my curtains were not drawn back by a certain time they would come looking ! But when you live alone its very reassuring.

8 Jul, 2010

 

Your garden is beautiful Cinderella and it will look even more so on your return, enjoy your break.

Thank you Mad, Yes my neighbour will water them for me.

Lovely garden, so much packed into it ! Have a lovely week away.

8 Jul, 2010
