Lovely Artjak - particularly the orange combo! Don't you just love it when something like that comes together. Keep the pics coming - cottage gardens are my favourite
Art the figs look great! I love tulips and will get some for pots this winter. Couldn't have them at that house cos of rabbits. Your seedlings are doing well and you're wise to take your time. I've got mine out overnight now but I've done it over several weeks as they were in the kitchen and with the cold weather it would have been disastrous to stick them out too quickly! Re your 50p oregano-isn't it great when you get a bargain and nurse it back to health
And yes it was a lovely place and hard work-but it came at too high a price I'm afraid (and I don't mean financially). That's life. My new plot offers a different challenge and that's what I try to focus on -hard though it is. sometimes.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
No artjak- but I've taken a few pix so I'll pop some on later. It's not terribly exciting-slabs, gravel, fences and grass! I've just been out trying to weed and was chopping back a pine tree which is too big for where it's been planted. Been a bit rainy here today so not done as much as I wanted.

That's very lovely Fairygirl
In the sticks near Peterborough
Fairygirl, I am very impressed by your incredible garden. Mine is a cottage garden (almost ashamed to post the pics
) but here goes;
Top; Turkish tulip, above burberis...
Origano, rescued from B&Q at death's door for 50p two weeks ago.
Figs!
Seedlings hardeneing and being returned to greenhouse each night.

Fairygirl, have we seen you new plot yet? Sorry I sometimes don't have time to read through a whole thread.

Great pix hollie! What a lovely sunny day you had too
New plot- pic 1 is part of the back (slabs and gravel and fence!)
pic 2 is the side of house looking in same direction as pic 1(fenced off bit is what you see part of in pic 1)
pic 3 is the side looking other way (towards the front)
As I said-grass, gravel , slabs and fence!

FG grass, gravel, slabs and fence for now but you will gradually change it to what you want
