Colour In My Garden At Last
Comments on this photo
Hi Amy, I think the Acer is Goldsworth Purple - but like yours gives a lovely splash of colour each year. If you look to the far right you can just see a Acer Drummondii which gives a nice contrast :)

I do believe that if I had a garden as big and I walked to the end I would not be able to hear the kids squabbling! lucky you, it looks great

I've never thought of that before Mageth - but you're right, you can get away from it all here. :)

I know what you mean. I know now why my dad spent so much time in the garden when I was little - to get away from my nagging Mum, lol.

looks great..just cut the lawn ? ( lol)

You obviously have them well trained Sandra :) Sound like great kids.
Hi Deida: Maybe it was cut the day before - I can't remember. Husband's favourite pastime so a good chance it had just been cut, lol.

they are good Dawn. everyone gets involved when our open day is looming...five weeks to go still loads to do.

Great stuff, very exciting and lots of work too I guess. Do you get stressed or do you take it in your stride?
4 May, 2009
i'm not too bad. as it gets closer i have to accept what can be done before the big day. any weeds left on the open day turn into wild flowers..lol but it is usualy a nice day. the ladies from the friends of the hospital bring lovely home made cakes and lots of friends and family come so it turns out to be a very sociable occasion.

DoctorB: Your comment means alot :) Yep, summer nearly here at last albeit about 3 weeks after you :)
