Thanks... just found it... well done :o)))

Wonderful Pixi! Ignore my question in the other thread, you meant resizing :)

Loads of planting potential there, I agree with the bigger borders less grass plan they'll look really full when stocked up...

I could use some of your energy....I only managed about an hour in the garden today; so frustrating! Got some weeding and pruning done but there is always more....

You've worked hard to get your borders ready for planting and if you are like all the rest of us we can't wait for spring and summer colour to brighten up our borders, Pixi.

Happy gardening.

You have done a good job there,Pixi..great to be outside ,isn't it? Been lovely here too..got lots done,and Russell cut the grass this afternoon..looks good with all the dead thatch raked out,and not as much moss this year either..
All in a pile now for the birds,for their nests ..you have plenty extra space for more plants now..:o)

Looking good Pixi :). It's good to make room. Remember I have a Brunnera growing for you. It wasn't very happy looking til about a week ago and it now has a couple of minuscule leaves just growing. I'll wait til it gets a wee bit healthier looking and get it over too you!

Your garden is looking lovely Pixi25 ,but I think the fresh air has gone to your head! :-))

13 Mar, 2012

 

Great idea to get rid of the grass. I got rid of mine as soon as I could :o) You'll have a lovely garden with lots of interesting plants, and less mowing :o)

14 Mar, 2012

 

Yes agree with the grass for me - it is so easier - our grass in winter just got wetter and wetter - puddles, worm casts, magpies nicking it in March, mess from mowing, getting mower out and back in, cleaning the mower, weeds - to name a few :D

14 Mar, 2012

 

THanks Mavis lol I know!
Yep the grass is going..I need a few slabs etc tho..not just yet..:)

14 Mar, 2012

14 Mar, 2012
