I love cottage gardens as well but am new to gardening so just have two beds at the moment with very small plants. :-) I'm willing them to grow quickly.

I look forward to seeing your pics when I get home from work tomorrow. How big is your garden?

We do have foxes here in the 'burbs too but they poop all over the place and dig up my plants so I am not a fan of them! LOL.

Wow, sounds like you are busy! I love the bird table. How have you managed to keep the clematis looking healthy?

I find that all the shrubs and plants around my bird table get pooed onor pecked to bits by birds after the crumbs and seeds that the blackbirds scatter from the table to the ground. I gave in last year and planted a dogwood under mine instead of something pretty.

Your garden is lovely.
