Garden in june

Well done San, everything looking shipshape, and lovely. Like the painting too.

Welcome back after your mini break San. Your pots are looking so good, its surprising how the garden goes mad when you have time off, well the weeds anyway, hope you're feeling alot better now.

Hi Sandra and welcome back, glad you're feeling a bit better now. Your garden is looking very fresh and green, lovely pics especially of your hanging baskets. Glad you're still managing to do some painting, I love all the different shades of foliage in this one especially the red tree.

Glad to hear you're on the mend, glad you have been able to enjoy the garden and as always its looking fab. Also I'm pleased to hear that I am not the only one who gets attacked whilst weeding - I usually have to give up until they go to sleep.
I like your painting too - good to hear from you again.

It is all looking lush and well cared for. No one would know you had had any time off. I like the little eryngium and the lily.

thanx cinders, Dawn, Lily, KF, and MM, nice to see you all and thanx for your kind comments, nice being back amongst garden friends ;o)) x

Love it all, particularly the baskets not seen that design before

I love your pots and hanging baskets San, they are really beautiful and your garden is looking fab. Glad you are much better now and enjoying the garden. Love your painting, I like that house!

Glad you are back, your plants and garden are looking very good.

Hi San, Garden and painting both looking pretty good to me. :0)

so many comments thankyou all my friends, im so glad you all like the painting to and yes its acrylics dorjac, tricky at first as they dry so quick, so spray spray spray all the time with water on the pallet.
brian the baskets were cheap ones from wilkos i think a couple of years ago and i didnt want to do big ones this year so out these came from the shed lol, iv had to take one down today as we are having a porch on the front tomorrow, so the basket then will be placed just around the corner on side wall onece the porch is up.
its been lovely today and enjoyed being in the sun, all my pains go away when the sun shines, so making the most of it.
karen i would love to live in the house in my painting and its a lovely village to:o)
hywel im feeling good today, its the sunshine, hope your well to :o)

San...great to see a photo of the log you got the day we went to the plant fair....it's looking very nice :) It's been so hot today...I've just come inside after watering all my pots and borders (left it until it had cooled down...was going dark by the time I finished).

A new porch...hope you are pleased with the finished job and can get your hanging basket rehung with no probs :)

Your painting with the cottage is wonderful....and your figure with the doggie looks good too. I noted elsewhwere you mention you've been experimenting with doing figures...this one looks good to me. Take care. x

Hi San, it's lovely to see your garden bathed in sunshine again after all the rain you've had recently. I'm sure the warmth does us all a power of good.
