And so to bed!

thats looking very good ~ i like that curvy shape.

the wall isnt straight and I cant cut straight so gentle curves seemed easiest :o)

I am hoping it al knits together well.

i think its the best way.

I like it, it is looking good, hope it keeps growing for you. Looks to be doing ok. Curves are easier than straight, I never can get straight edges properly it just doesn't happen for me.

I like it too,Sbg..curves are good..:o).your colour scheme will be lovely..I need to improve on mine,it seems a bit mis matched at the moment..you know when you don't know where to put something,and bung it in..till you decide where is best ?..it is looking a bit like that..Lol.
looking forward to seeing yours in bloom..:o)

Looks great! :))))

Hello! That's a LOT of work, and hard work, well done! Hope you do get a bit of rain, but at night would be good! Those plants will be growing away like mad in no time! More pics soon then?;0)

Looking lovely! I look forward to future photos showing their progress.

You have been a busy girl! I have just seen the weather forcast for the next 3 days rain here in the south, hope you get some to. I have a lot of pink and white Lavatera (parade mixed) if you would like some PM me. All young plants in 9cm pots.

we are forecast rain for the weekend, but i am so glad i didnt put the bedding plants out as we had a hard frost yesterday where the temps dropped to 0 in the greenhouse and even colder outside.

I have a bed to the side of the drive that is a real hotchpotch of plants. ones that i want to grow but dont really know where to grow them. So I know what you mean Bloomer.
thanks for the offer of lavertera but i have lots in pots waiting to to in too Sueb.

Well you've certainly improved that border - it looks so much better - and will look even better when your plants have grown.

Ok Sbg. ;O)

Another case of 'the incredible shrinking lawn'. Will watch developments with interest - already looking good.

I dont think it will shrink much more if at all. :o)

Tell me that again next year, lol.

{the wall isnt straight and I cant cut straight so gentle curves seemed easiest :o)}
I prefer the "rustic" look as well and for the same reasons :-)
Don't worry about the rest of the lawn, Sbg, ours shrank to zero many years ago - it does happen.

Its going to look lovely once the new plants have grown in, Well done on all the hard work. :o))

It's going to improve as the season progresses and the plants fill out. It will be worth all your hard work.

I've stared at your lawn and cant see any sign of all the buttercups etc. One of these days I'll post a close up of mine that will make you feel yours is perfect! Be interesting to do a species count one of these days. Your neat work is so impressive - and your cosseted plants will be so happy to be planted in the ground in such a lovely border.

You've done a very good job, SBG! It's already looking OK! In a couple of months it will look so much better & will look as if they have always been there.
