    Fabulous garden, really inspirational and it shows that you love what you do with the garden. I shall keep a look out for further pictures. Keep up the good work.

    Wow! You're talent is an inspiration, I often wished I could build things like these, and you really inspire me to just give it a go.

    Mr Haynes, any chance of seeing a feature about Eddie's work in the magazine? I think it is definitely worth it and a lot of people would be very interested to see what has been achieved.

    Keep up the amazing work, I am really looking forward to seeing more pictures!

    Many thanks for the positive comments. image

    I haven't really completed much of late, but here is quick update of further items that I have made for the garden.

    A simple bench, although I have plans to make this into a sea horse.

    Finally this not so nice item which I made for Halloween.

    As said previously, my main project for this year will be to construct a brick built wood fired pizza/bread oven, but the weather is not currently inspiring me to get started. 

     

     

     

  • This is an astonishing garden. Are you planning to open it to the public? How about the NGS?

  • Eddie JEddie J Posts: 108

    Thanks Gardening Grandma. image

    We have had a meeting in respect of joining the NGS, and hope to develop the idea at some stage. Sadly though it probably won't be for another year or so yet, as there are still hard landscaping jobs that need to be carried out in respect of safety etc.

    It is always good to have a goal to aim for though. image

     

    Here is another aspect of the garden that I hadn't previously shown. image

    This is a really old thread Paul. Don't think the OP posts here any more  - haven't seen his name in the last year or so anyway.

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

    Thanks Fairygirl, life, work and health have rather side tracked me.

     

    Paul, to link the tanks together I purchased blanking caps for each tap on the IBC, then fitted plastic fittings and water pipe that I purchased from an agricultural merchants. If you would like further details and perhaps close up photo, just let me know.

     

    I haven't really done anything with the garden over the last year, but this has been my most recent project for it, and I now just have the roof to finish. In truth I wouldn't have even started it, had I known how much work that it was going be.

    Hi Eddie - sorry to hear that you've not been well. It was nice that someone posted on here because it was lovely seeing these brilliant sculptures again, and I'm equally impressed with your new project too. image

    You don't like doing things by half do you? image

    Mine's a Margherita with lots of basil by the way....image
