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.
Dave - that's superb. You must be thrilled - and rightly so.
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?
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, 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
turned out the pots today to put the geraniums into winter storage, decided this was the seasons best-geraniums, lobelia and bacopa. dave what great things you are doing. was your garden a builders rubbish tip?

Very pretty Busy.
Thank you, Lily.

A few from today.
The ubiquitous G. Rozanne (only a baby):
Clem. Hagley Hybrid, 2nd (or 3rd?) flush:
A random dahlia (lots of these still):
But the star has to be Arctotis Red Devil:
That has flowered non-stop from the spring!
My Garden August 2013
My garden June 2014.
Still a long way to go but getting there.

Wow Dave! I think you've come a long way already.
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 year
