Flood wall now.


Flood wall now.

I'm so glad I planted all those dwarf irises in there.

I second that. Does it work? You said you had been flooded three times lately. Off to read your other blog. :0)

Thanks. Fortunately, the floods haven't quite got that high, so the new defences haven't been tested. I hope they don't get tested, either! Having a flooded garden is bad enough...it's scary. :-(

Gosh you must be thrilled with the way it's turned out Barbara ,we know it wasn't on your list of jobs to do but it definitely has the Wow factor now !

Excellent choice, at least they do not or will not be dug up like our poor plants, (usually by me, I might add)..

No - they'll be left alone there. That's why I have that little bed of them round the birches - they thrive because they don't get disturbed.
