kiwiflyer, you've made a lovely job of that..and a good sized garden in what appears to be a Caravan park...that's unusual isn't it..? good to see someone making such use of their plot..
Thank you so much everyone for your kind comments.
As I spent a few years in New Zealand, I could not afford to buy a house when I returned back to England, so the best option was to buy a small Caravan , but I really wanted something larger so that I could have a garden,
So saved up and bought a much larger Caravan, with enough room to fence off a space 15 feet by 42 feet.
I had plenty of time in our wet winter, to work out how to do it and, as everyone knows it was so wet in early spring, to get anything done outside.
However, we are now reaping the rewards with first new potatoes even cherries from the new tree and 3 little apples growing.
In amongst the top soil I found a little acorn growing and it is now thriving about 8 inches high.
I cannot throw it away but of course it will be far too big later on to let it grow on this plot, so if anyone has a good size garden and would like a lovely Oak tree, for future generations to enjoy watching it grow, please let me know.

Thank you all once again.
I thought I'd quote it so we could see it on the same page but it started doing it twice! I love before and after pics.
Now it's all gone a bit funny and my rose is in the wrong place. Hope I haven't messed up.
Hi Busy-Lizzie,
That makes two of us, I found it more difficult to organise and send the photos than working on the garden
No jungle would be complete will out some bananas!
Wow, what an amazing plant. Will those bananas be edible?
