My New Arch

it looks lovely there

Thanks Irish. I had a bit of bother getting the holes prepared. I'd get one done then hit a brick with the second one. I had to keep moving it. It's slightly forward of where I originally wanted it but it's in and it's staying in!

It makes a lovely frame for the entrance to the rest of the garden.

Thanks Silverbelle. I didn't go for a seriously heavyweight one as it's standing about 3' in front of the conservatory window and I was worried in case it got caught by any strong wind. It's pretty secure - it had better be after the carry on getting it in! Here's hoping anyway.

Lol...found the pic at last Keithsmum:) It looks great there! Looking forward to seeing it when the climbers get growing up and over it too :)

Thanks Di, I'll keep you posted. I still need to give the clematis something more to cling on to but that's a job for the weekend. I've had a few days off but it's back to work tomorrow (for a seat!).

Saw your bit on Crazydi's blog - it did make me laugh - it looks great now its in. Have just toured your garden - it's beautiful.

Thanks Wagger - I'm pleased you like it although I must say, it's come on in leaps and bounds since I discovered this forum. It just makes me want to get out there and do stuff.

Well done! It's looking great. I love 'Niobe'. She's a beauty!

Thanks Spritzhenry, I'd never have thought of putting in another arch if I hadn't joined this forum. I just have to get the boys organised now to water the new arrivals while we're on holiday!

I'm looking forward to a glorious show next year.

Mmmmm...I'm thinking another arch would look good at the end of that path Keithsmum :)))
(Sorry...I'll shut up now...lol x)

Hello Di, Ha ha! I can't get one in at that end, it would get whacked by the whirly - I did look though.

"Mmmmm...I'm thinking another arch would look good at the end of that path Keithsmum "

Di, you're a bad girl! I had another look this morning when I put up the whirly and guess what? There's room - lol

Watch this space - ha ha!!

Lol....so where is it then?? And going back to work is no excuse, ha ha :))

I haven't forgotten about it. I might go with the two cane test first. They weren't noticed the first time round! I need to do some work on that bed so it might just "appear" then.
