Pebble and rock area

That's pretty ...I've added to GoYpedia Pebbles..

... and GoYpedia Cobbles ... :o)

thats lovely, its very well maintained ~ best to keep on top of those otherwise the weeds suddenly take over.

Yes - but no problem if there's membrane under the pebbles, then it's incredibly easy to pull out weeds. Maybe you'll see this place for yourself sometime this year?! (only 4 Open Days, remember? next one 5th Feb. :))

What surprises me is the proximity of the stones to the grass . . . my OH pretty much bans gravel beds next to the lawn because you have to be so careful with the mower!

I have gravel next to grass ... by my Gromit's Gravel Gardens and other places .. yes ... have to be careful with the mower ... I inspect the lawn edges before I cut the grass ...

This is verrry nice Sheilabub..you bin hiding your light under pebbles havent you!

Ummm, Tet . . . did you miss the caption?! :))

Well I couldve said bush -ell but there arent any! lol!

i think sheila means this is Ashwood Nursery garden?

Thats not on the top of my page!!! Ohhhhh, the bit underneath...missed that! I shall have to get pebble glasses and keep Yorkie company with her ear trumpet!

That's right Sticki . . . if it was mine I'd be out there admiring it all the time, instead of having cosy chats on here!

if it was mine it wouldnt look as good as that!

Stop doing yourself down lass! Your photo gallery is a bit thin but there's a pic on your garden on there I would be proud of!! I sometimes look at my pics and think.."is that really my garden??", cos in real life 8 weeks out of 10 it never looks that good!

do you mean my garden tet? it was laid out by the previous people and it has a lot more weeds in than it used to have when they were here ~ they left everything immaculate!! im not an immaculate sort!!!

Nor me Sticki..Im too lazy for that! However, when all the flowers are in bloom, take a picture..bet you wont notice the weeds then! Im just lucky my OH is a weedkiller par excellence..if he sees a weed, up it comes..however, I have lost a few dutch iris and kniphofia Little Maids, when he thought they were wild onions and grass!!!

OH is not a gardener ~ doesnt know a weed from a flower but likes it to look nice and does the lawns!
he has been known to dig out lovely plants that i am nurturing and carefully dig round and look after the weeds ~ he really has no idea!!
in the last 2 years he has begun to know a few plant names

My OH doesn't know many plant names, but he makes up some wonderful alternatives! If I don't know, I just say "isn't it Amnesia?" lol.

very good answer ~ must try not to forget amnesia!!!!

!! :-))

;~))

It's a beauty I just can't ignore!

Thanks Joy . . . would just love this in my own garden!
