Looks great!

Thanks Michaella, Stickit and Sheila pleased you like it, its only tiny but makes a nice frontage to our Bungalow, ;0)

Looks lovely from here! ...

Thanks Shirley, we do have nice views over the hills;0),

You'd never know you've had a tree removed, it looks just perfect :)

Yes Gee Im really pleased the way the grass seeds germinated and its all knitted together;0)

It really is lovely,Carole..just to think I was having a nosey round it,this time yesterday...:o) ..I can vouch for it folks..perfect lawn,no weeds ! ..

Thanks Sandra have you had a little snooze? good job we went out yesterday never stopped raining here and we have the heating on too!

PP, that looks really good, well done. It must be such a relief now the tree has gone.

It is Dawn but I do miss it especially the lovely blossom in spring;0)

Yes I did have a snooze,Carole..on and off,watching the Regatta.:o)..We didn't have the heating on,just the fire..nice and cosy.:o)..it's given it to be better tomorrow,but wet again Tuesday :(

We will have to make the most of tomorrow then, me out Alpines in lol

Thanks HB

That's lovely Carole you would never know you had taken out a tree , the lawn looks perfect and I love the colour combination of the foliage ,pinks / browns etc ...

Thanks Amy so pleased with the lawn, it was choked with moss and the huge roots from tree were making , it impossible to mow, but thanks to a man with Saw and Spade its great now lol

We all need a ' Harry ' Carole ! what would we do without them ??

Thanks for your comment on 'Tranquility' Pansy It was taken at a B&B called Reynolds Farm in Marshside Nr Canterbury Kent.
Your garden is a credit to you.

Thankyou Rose and thanks for that lovely picture, if and when I do a painting you wil be the first to know;0)

It's beautiful Carole and what a view you have beond it too:-)

Thanks Ba, it is a nice view , we are lucky. Ive been out in the front garden this morning putting in a fer more plants, some Mimulus and some pinks ;0)

By the way Carole, if this is your little front garden, mine is miniscule:-)

Size dosent matter BA its the quality and enjoyment that you get from it that counts;0)

I second that :o))))

;0))

Oh wow Pansy! Your garden is fantastic, but look at your views!! Wonderful! :D

Aww thanks Karen we live in a lovely valley surrounded by hills very lucky;0)

I like being in valleys myself. Some people like being on the top, on the moors, but I like being tucked away in a valley with lots of protection around me! :D

Me as well...always that couple of degrees warmer too..although you wouldn't think it,lately ! :o(

Oh Bloomer, it is really awful here today...rain, wind, cold...just like a winters day. I am really hoping it goes away soon....I don't know how much grumpier OH can possibly get! I remember midsummer nights past when we sat outdoors with a glass of wine and lit candles....I can't believe how awful these two summers have been.....sigh! I just really hope this isn't a permanent change, just a blip in our weather patterns.

I think it has been worse here so far,than last year ,Karen..but I know it was diabolical for you in Scotland...just so depressing,when you have your hopes,and looking foward to seeing everything doing well in the garden...I'm just glad I managed to stake or tie up ,things I thought might be damaged,yesterday. ..after hearing the forecast for today..all seems to be ok,if soggy ! ...

Yes Karen I remember those nights out in the garden with a glass of wine and candles, no chance this year as yet, more like winter woolies and raincoats;0(

Sandra glad you got your plants staked in time , I did too, what about that downpour around 8 this evening the drive was filling up with water as you know it slopes down to the frort door, a narrow escape and a bit scary to say the least, pity those people who have been flooded, how dreadful must that be !

aww this is the exact style im going for for my front p.p simple layout with lots colour and texture! love it!! :)

Thanks Leigh easy to keep tidy too;0)

thats the idea!! :-)

What a beautiful front garden Carole, gorgeous colours blending there...what is the little standard tree?

Thanks Janey the little standard is Euonymus Golden King I have three of these,they are 11years old now, and although they suffer with the frost in severe winters they aslways bounce back as good as new!
