Changes that are satisfying,
By stroller

I`ve made quite a few changes to the garden over the last twelve months, some I didn`t like and have re-done but all in all I am quite satisfied with what has been achieved.
The rose "Mortimer sackler and clemitis “Pamjattj serdtza” has reached the top of the arch.
A view of the revamped front garden with “Enoch reclining on his bench” this keeps the passersby amused. However, I still don`t like that path but it has to be serviceable. I do have a solution in mind, so maybe later in the year things will change.
The Lefthand side of the back garden patio with the "Teachelospermum jasminoides in flower, the perfume is lovely on a warm summer evening.
The Righthand side of the patio waiting for the Sweet peas to climb the canes.
Looking down the back garden with the new circle.
Looking up the garden to the patio where hubby sits relaxing with a glass of wine thinking about the new addition to the lefthand bed, but thats another blog.
We have had a few glorious days of sunshine in which to tidy up and weed and plant, but also to sit and enjoy what we have done so far, hope you have all had time to reflect and enjoy your achievements.

No flowers this year Sylvia but shall give it a gentle reminder that you said it better start producing next year.lol.
Nana ... What a change from yesterday quite cool today with a blustery wind which seems to be dying down as I look through the window.
Whdebor ... I`m pretty good at pacing myself these days so I do tend to sit and sip coffee or wine in the evenings when this untypical weather allows.
Lulu ... Thanks glad you like the clem - just wish it had flowered lower down as well.
Thanks TT ... a lovely compliment.

Now, I did enjoy that Stroller. I do like to see an interesting garden without lawn.....we've spoken about that before haven't we...I do like your new circle, and that rose and clem partner each other beautifully. Looking forward to seeing your path solutions later, but you have another few glasses of wine first! :))

Beautiful gardens! Well done to you both! :)))

I just love your gardens and what you've done to them. You are so lucky to have a spot in the sun, we have to move round our garden and at teatime and after there is no sun at all as it is hidden by the big beech trees.I got the trachlesphermum once but lost it as there wasn't a warm wall to put it on.Yours looks absolutely fabulous.I haven't seen your "before" garden but it looks like you've worked really hard.
