Our garden

If you have the space, sometimes its just nice to have grass and trees like this, its lovely.

Lovely... lots of space, and privacy...
... and peace I guess ...

Wow! you've got a garden and a half:-)

Thanks ... this side of the garden is pretty amazing but it was unmanaged by the previous owners so we've had to chop down quite a few trees because they were rotting at the base and quite dangerous. The tree in the foreground is a plum tree - again pretty old and unkempt. We're planning to give it a trim later in the year but the fruit it's giving us this year is well beyond expectations.

Shirleytulip has a brilliant recipe for plum cake if you have too many. Don't look at it though as I became addicted last winter and wouldn't want you to suffer the same fate:-) I would love to have the room for large trees like yours, probably wouldn't bother with too many flowers if I had a garden like this:-)

Ah now that's a great idea Bornagain. I'll have a look and take the risk. Last year it was plum jam but fiddly getting the stones out so I'll try something different this year. Thankyooouuu :-) By the way, take a look at my other photo's and you'll see that we also have a "project" garden that we're working on. I'm trying to get a cottage garden going so loooooots to keep me busy.
