Front garden

My front garden is a decent size..the soil is heavy clay so i have mixed in compost and sand to help drainage, since moving here 5 months ago i have planted shrubs perennials and summer flowers so it's looking quite tidy at the moment, unfortunatly i have to take hours out just to keep up with the weeding each week due to the gardens being neglected for what seem's quite a few years but im quite happy with my progress.
