Very colourful and.....lets of watering.I like the idea of some of the pavers replaced by gravel etc. I was considering taking some of mine out to do this but, not sure Julie will agree.I will show her this.

just what I thought Paul, great to see the gravel in between the paving slabs and I have just the spot I could do this with. lol I wonder........................ :O)

Glad you both like the gravel. I took the pavers out a few years ago, and I have refreshed them a couple of times. Until recently, they were more like small flower beds - not my original intention, but poppies and thyme (planted) had taken over. When the children were small it was useful to have a large area where they could play, but then I thought I would like the variety. They are just concrete slabs, after all. The only thing about gravel is that it gets kicked across the patio a bit, but it's easy enough to sweep it back every now and then. There are two other areas of gravel as well.

Thank you, Wildrose and Bloomer!

As Paul and Barbara are interested, I am going to post a picture of all the gravel sections in the patio.

Oh, right I will have a look Melchi! Thanks. I have a stone chip area both sides of the patio so I could use the same strones to tie in with them.
