Front garden : blossom and rockeries. April. 2017

Spring has sprung … my favourite time of year.
Blossom all around …
Skyward, it sparkles against the blue skies …
and it creates a bright backdrop everywhere …
… not forgetting the pretty pink corner …
……………………………………………………………………..
Shrubs are well established now …
… and the contented tulips reveal their pretty faces …
……………………………………………………………………..
Aubrieta never disappoints …
and the white stream flows on happily …
.. meandering through the flowers …
… until it reaches the big cobbles …
Happy Springtime, everyone … x x x

Such a dreamy garden. What plant does the pink blossom belong to in the 4th picture?
13 Apr, 2017
Its just stunning...and it gets better every year!
13 Apr, 2017
I just love your 'stream side' planting, it's inspired.
13 Apr, 2017
What a marvellous display! It's all so perfect. However do you manage to keep your 'stream' so white, without it turning green?
13 Apr, 2017
My favourite time of year too, Terra, and I love your cherry blossom!
13 Apr, 2017
Fantastic display, well laid out, very impressive, a joy to look at

I had to go to a thesaurus to find a non redundant synonym of praise for your front garden, so here is what I chose....Your front garden is " out-of-sight!!!"
13 Apr, 2017
Wow, it is just stunning! I too love the white stream and too wonder how you keep it looking SO white.
13 Apr, 2017
So beautiful Tt...:>)

I look forward to seeing this front garden every year. It beats any other that I have seen. Definitely Gold Cup standard TT.

Just gorgeous ... well done Terra ... an absolutely beautiful front garden.

Thank you for your wonderful comments ... I've read them all several times and am very appreciative of everything you've written.
Amsterdam .. sorry I've never known the name of the pink blossom tree. I bought it with no label.
I'm guess the white stream will gradually turn darker ... I will wait and see ...

I love the "stream", well, I love it all, but I love that especially.
17 Apr, 2017
Thanks Fran ... you could incorporate a small 'stream' into your garden alterations.
17 Apr, 2017
It's incredible, the amount of colour you have in the garden, Tt...well done.It's beautiful.

Hi Paul ... thanks... I don't do much planning as regards colours, but they seem to work out well.
18 Apr, 2017
can always move something that doesn't work out. even the best plans don't always work out how they look on paper.
19 Apr, 2017
I never make paper plans for shrub layout etc. ... surprising that my haphazard planting usually works out okay.
19 Apr, 2017
So so pretty ??????
19 Apr, 2017
Hi Maggie ... thank you !
