Courtcourt Gardens

I love your courtyard garden,Mad,you must have been so sad to leave it .It looks such a peaceful place,and lovely planting :o)))Thanks for showing it....

Mad your court yard garden in so pretty, love the raised pond area and the lovely colourful planting, it looks nice and private too, I can understand your need to move on but it must have been a wrench to leave this idylic haven!

How can you 'put yourself down' Mad? It was a lovely, peaceful place. :-))

Quite right Spritz.....its lovely Mad....really restful looking......

That was lovely Mad,you must have been so proud to make that oasis in a busy city. Its certainly earns its place in Goypeadia courtyards Mad. Lucky people who took that over from you, well done.

mad dont sell yourself short its lovely, so bright and cheerfull to, :o))

this is lovely Mad, well worth an entry in any design book in my opinion.

Well you're very kind, thank you. Actually I wasn't upset to leave as I was still 'grieving' for my Magical Garden, made from scratch (in my pictures.)I do prefer the one we have now to the courtyard.
I visited our ex- next door neighbour, next to the courtyard garden, and saw that they had got rid of the raised pond, and filled in most of the flower beds to make room for the ubiquitous barbeque. She was appalled.
Strangely I didn't feel upset atall, maybe because we moved to a bungalow with a well designed small/medium sized garden, to plan and re-plant.

Mad just love the vibrant colors

I felt like you when we left our old house and garden of 18 years,but we did exactly the same,and moved to a bungalow,and best move ever.I can see our old house from my kitchen window,as we only moved round the other side of the bowling green ! Not missed it at all.As they say,onwards and upwards,except in
our case,Mad,..onwards and downwards..no stairs..:o)) Great isn't it?

Mad its a credit to you, its lovely.

Oh Mad, I would have loved to have joined you for a bottle of wine in that beautiful garden. You should feel rightly proud. :-)

Tranquil place to retreat and unwind in, love it.
