How exciting! It reminds me of when my daughter moved into her new home. Experienced gardeners must have planted the garden. I walked around and hung plant names on various "green" bushes for her. When I moved here there was not a single plant except for a clump of daffodils growing on a bank so a blank canvas.. When I began digging I found lots of balls of very sticky, white clay amongst the stones and grit. Claypit waste.
My new bare root rose arrived yesterday so have just plunged it into a bucket of water. Hopefully I can pot it up tomorrow when most of the family have gone home and even more hopefully when the wind/heavy rain has abated.
I mowed the lawn - ridiculous for 23rd December but it's so mild it's growing. I'm even wondering about getting the robo mower out for a week or so - 2 hours with the electric mower that usually just does the odd bits was no fun.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you all

Merry Christmas everybody.
Then found various tools which were still in boxes.
Finally came across my concrete frog, which my wife had hoped I'd left at our old house - and repeatedly stressed!!
Sparks flew!!! 😇😁
Love the thought of a robo mower @NormandyLiz.
