Back of garage - after Aug '08

After: Running along side the path is my other half's pride and joy - his garage. The back wall of the garage over looks the rest of the garden and points North/East so it gets a few hours of sun first thing. I've included a shot of how it looked in the beginning March '08 and a shot of how it looked 6 months later Aug '08.

Thanks for all your lovely comments Morgana (and Suey187 of course) - I had a head start thanks to two potted mature hostas on the right. I'm going to divide them as they're too big for the space now. Is it ok to divide when we're close to frosty UK weather?

Yes as long as you don't plant any thing in frosted ground.

Awwww, thank you thank you thank you Sanbaz :) Above all the foliage there's a white climbing Hydrangea Petiolaris which is coming on nicely after 1.5 years (even flowered this Summer), a deep pink rambling rose which I'm still scratching my head over, and a Parthenocissus Henryana which seems to be bolting in every direction. Wild :)
