Glorious Spring and Beautiful flowers...Plus a job I hated doing..

I love the revamp that ypu have done. I enjoy that sort of gardening too.
the plants are growing away nicely and putting on a wonderful show. the cat is very brave :o)

Cheeky cat, but isn't he lovely. I love Mr Treeman...he is better than any of these 'greenmen' faces you see for sale. He's fab. :)

Sad to see an old favourite go but its surp[rising how soon you get used to the space where it was. The new bed is going to look pretty. What a lovely cat Toffee is! Well named too

Seaburn I have always liked the challenging bits, I know its only a small area but it's good to start from scratch isn't it, I bought a Sorbaria from the GC the other day, I liked the colouring and was thinking I would plant it near to where the tree had been, however when I was reading up on it later, I discovered they are prone to producing suckers, that is the last thing I want down there so I've popped it into a huge pot instead..

Karen Toffee is the friendliest tomcat we've ever had, not an ounce of aggression in him, he has the patience of a saint with Harriet, they are the best of pals but the little madam does lie in wait ready to pounce on him, but then that is the westie way.. I do like Mr Treeman, I've never yet plucked up the courage to try and carve something on the opposite side....

Hello Stera, I felt ever so mean destroying a beautiful tree in that way, bit soft I know, naturally its made a big difference as regards the light in my bottom g'house as well..
His full name is Toffee Vodka, he belongs to Sherryl and its her favourite tipple, living all together he does own all of us....

Your garden is looking so colourful your pond looks great and that Red Robin is a beauty stes the other blooms off a treat. Your Toffee is lovely also a lovely colour I can see how he got his name.😊

Thankyou 3d, the Red Robin is fabulous this year, it started out as a shrub but Morgan and Brynner broke it in half in its second year, since then I've been training it as a standard, I only remove two stems a year and I think this year will be the last ones to have the shape correct, its a bit lopsided at the moment..Toffee is a lovely friendly cat, only one we have now so he gets all the attention....

I understand how you feel - a little - Lincs as a few years ago I had to get rid of the 3 golden Conifers that I'd had on the balcony for around 10 years as they contracted some disease & had to go when they didn't recover the 2nd year after contracting it.

The space you have now plated up will look lovely in a few months time! The rest of your garden is lovely, too! 😀

Shame about the tree but you can use the extra space now ...
Nice to get some work done :)

Well you ve done grand job shaping the Red Robin it into a standard. I am sure Toffee deserves and enjoys all your attention he gets

Lovely blog Lincs ... lovely cat too! :o)

Enjoyed looking at your garden, Linclass. It seems quite big. Love Toffee too. Will look out for any updates later on.
What a gorgeous Easter we've had, going to change tho' over the next few days.
