    Lovely flowers everyone,  We've been so lucky this year with the weather.  Let's hope it makes the winter seem short and we have an early spring.  Just a quick cold snap over Christmas would suit me. 

    Hi from Kingswinford in the West Midlands
  • A few from today.

    But the star has to be Arctotis Red Devil:

      That has flowered non-stop from the spring!

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Dave - that's superb. You must be thrilled - and rightly so. image

    Sometimes it helps having a pic to look at because you see the garden more objectively. That's often tricky when you're working away in it all the time.

    Did you dig a big hole and bury all the rubbish at the top in the first pic? imageimage

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



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
  • Wow Dave! I think you've come a long way already. image what are your plans now?

    Bob the Gardener - love the red devil flower on the previous page; I've already forgotten what it was called despite just looking it up...

    Really like the HH clematis too- I bought one in the sale this year and it hasn't flowered but looking forward to next yearimage

    Wearside, England.

    Wow Dave, that is a spectacular transformation! Well done! I'm sure many hours of hard work went into that but what satisfying work when you see what you have achieved. It looks great image
