january in my garden here in Pembrokeshire

Interesting blog.... work well done :o)

it was a pleasure to be out there again TT. ;-)

The colour of the dogwood is fantastic - all the plants look like they are doing fantastic - I like the idea of using the shredded wood for the path, recycling at its best. Looking forward to spring here in chilly Lincs..:0)

i only got the shredder last summer. i find it very satisfying when you get to use the shreddings. im hopeing for it to be a bit warmer here tommorow. it was lovely outside today but i had to kepp comming back in for more clothes this morning. the sun was out but it didnt feel like it...but once i got the right clothing it was good.

No sun here today just drizzly rain and below freezing

hoe u get some sun soooon. i hate days like that....i end up haveing to do house work or paper work....lol

Housework is evil and must be stopped :0))

gardening is just so much more fun.....

and fulfilling, rewarding, calming,- infact the only thing I like more than gardening is..........chocolate :0)

I agree house work should be banned!!

I hope to get out on our nusery next week weather permitting.

Sandra you do have a big area to look after, obviously you are a very keen gardener I can tell by all the hard work you do, carry on it is so rewarding in the end when things come together.

Well thats what I tell myself, hubby might say otherwise!!!
