Before I actually dig the border I'm going to mark it out, as AT advises, with string to see how the shape will look. Then sit and look at it for a while . The berberis needs a careful prune so will do that first anyway.
I saw the photo of your big shed cover-up, by the way, it was looking good then, how does it look now? Any progress photos?
Think it's hose pipe AT says Bizzie? And didn't our lovely Geoff do with bottle of sand?
Ill take some update pics tomorrow along with your black grasses There is some progress as I re arranged some tall obelisks and added couple of plants I already had in pots, a honeysuckle and a climbing hydrangea, that was a laugh getting those out of the pots they had been in for years! I've also added another new honeysuckle a bit further along where there gorgeous washing line is! Oh and a couple or four climbers from my cheap market man! See I was busy whilst you was Out and about
Oh RB we have to have before and after pics of shed door please
Time for the shed reveal, here's a before and after piccy
Will be planting the troughs with bulbs later today. The plant in the pot is a bright blue salvia (can't remember the name) it's a bit tender so will have to go in the GH over winter.

Hope you approve.
Oh Yviestevie it looks brilliant, it really looks lovely and the neighbours wood even gives it a nice back drop now don't you think?
It's gonna get nicer and nicer now with everything you do ie planting up the troughs etc the hanging basket looks really pretty
I think your tin container you made the other day would look nice too
Hope your aches ease soon
Bet you keep going out and looking at it, I would
Pls update when troughs are planted up, yes I know I'm greedy
