This is what English gardens are all about Barbara , you could put that photo anywhere in the world and they would know instantly that it was England .. Beautiful ..!

I said last week that I'd try to show you more of the garden, as well as the plants in it. I will try - especially just before it's open. I know that lots of GOY friends can't get here.

Thanks, Karen - yes, he did. I drew a picture of what I envisaged for this area, then looked at websites to fnd one. The cost was sky-high, so OH set to and made one, then another matching one the following year for the top border after we took out a horrible huge Juniper tree. :-)))
