Last Spring i Erected a Garden Cane Trellis for Deco :) Then i added a Crazy Paving Type Patio Laid Into the Grass

I thought it looked to Plain so i dug out a Slim Border for some Sweetpeas/Clematis 2 b planted into So Theyd Climb the Garden Cane Trellis !

Now i was Happy Or was i ? I had some other Projcts in My head & wanted my garden to match in some way? Hmmmmmm ? So after Sweetpeas/Clematises Had Finished Flowering i made a start on another plan ;)Down Came the Garden Canes 2 be Repaced with a Wooden Trellis :)

Then I made the Border Bigger & added a Bird Table ,They were Painted the Same Colour as The Pond Bench,Garden Arch & Wheel Barrow u can see in the Back Ground,

& Of Cos My Freebie Chair u can see in This Pic ;)

Jacque, slow down. You need to stand and stare occassionally. Everything looks to be coming along wonderfully and if that's how your garden looks now it's going to be fabulous in the next few weeks and through the summer.I can just see you and your pets sitting around that table watching the birds and enjoying the evening smells.

You can post them Jacque thank you :o)
I won't be puting them in the ground yet. I think it's still a bit cold. It gets very windy here and I want them to gat used to their new home first. I'll have time to make the trellis soon I think then I'll put them out.

Lovely photos Jacque.! What a difference you have made ! Can just imagine the trellis smothered with sweet peas...and the scent !!!

26 Mar, 2009

 

your garden looks terrific, you've worked hard on it. great layout jaque. love the scent of sweet peas. i like your chair from the previous blg too.

26 Mar, 2009

 

Looks FAB! I've been told, in no uncertain terms that I am not allowed to take any more lawn away (hubby's job is mowing the lawn). I could do with another flower bed though, I'll have to take a bit more lawn when he's not looking!

27 Mar, 2009

 

Thanx Jane/Ray & Islander it has been very hard work getting the garden 2 look like this in just 21months! That includes Getting the Pond Done 2 & other borders i added last yr in Wild Area :) The Sweetpeas do smell great when their open as i had them up the Old Cane trellis which smelt yummi last yr & looked very Pretty :) Poor u GF not being aloud to take more Lawn :( Gardens need Flowers to tell Hubby :)

27 Mar, 2009

 

As you know, I don't like straight-edged beds - so well done for 'thinking curves' Jacque - a girl after my own heart!

Gf - can't you re-edge the lawn and get a few more inches each time? (hehe - fiendish plan!)

27 Mar, 2009

 

:D Thanx Spritz & youv given GF some really good advice may i add lol ;) Go GF X

27 Mar, 2009

 

I'm with you Spritz. Curves are best. Not sure we're talking about the same thing though.

27 Mar, 2009

 

LOL Toto :D

27 Mar, 2009

 

It all looks great Jacque, like the way you,ve created various beds and areas,its like having seperate rooms to work in and admire........

27 Mar, 2009

 

Thanx Lin your rite theres so many sitting areas to sit & get a different veiw of the garden every time :) I didnt plan any of this on Paper so im really plez`d how its coming on :)

27 Mar, 2009

 

You are lucky to have such a good sized garden, the curves really do it justice, you have worked hard, and it shows.

28 Mar, 2009

 

How big is your garden, Jacque?

28 Mar, 2009

 

I love the way the border bends out into the lawn like a tear drop, rather than just going along the side of the garden, much more interesting and the bird table will be easier to keep an eye on .

29 Mar, 2009

 

You're wearing me out, Jacque, with all your hard work! It's looking good now, can't wait to see what follows this season! :-)

30 Mar, 2009

 

Spritz - I do 'pinch' a bit more lawn every time I edge - it's taking less time to mow the lawn now - I wonder why? Lol!
