The dogwood at the far end is now in view from this end of the garden whereas before it was blocked by dead tree and brambles.
The gap between the trees was to the left of the tree stump but the tree on the left was dead so it had to go. I had the brushcutter out today and the lawnmower and I'm Knackered!
My predecessor was a keen gardener but did daft things and left stuff at his behind! The bit I'm working on is one of his dumping grounds but that means I can measure how far I've come. I used to only be able to get as far as the parasol holder, now I'm out past the ladder and plastic sheeting!!! Yesterday I got my brushcutter jammed into the end of a rotted sleeper. I was well and truly stuck! There are holes and tree stumps and sleepers and giant stones. What I'm going to do with it after it's cleared I don't know. I can't figure out how to level it.
My vision is a wooded glade with Silver Birch and wood anemones and bluebells and wild primroses.
B3 I like it, my gardening for the day, putting back everything our border collie Luna dug up, after a solid hours run off the lead on the beach with the tide out!!!! PP I love it!

Plant P , respect ! Do have a long term plan ? Take care
That's gardening with a big "G" Plant Pauper!
A nice hot Radox ("other products are available") bath should be in order after all that!
Ooh - aym280 - 30p! Thats given me an idea for small patch of ground I have in front garden which is a bit bare :-)
GWRS, AuntyRach it is a big job right enough.

I've a bit to go yet.
PlantP , what about a skip ? Or dig a big hole and creatre and old style rocky on the burial mound !
However your vision does sound good
In garden at moment , just trimmed Hawthorn tree about to start on hedges , wind dropped from yesterday and sun keeps breaking out
If I go for something like this it wouldn't matter if it had burial mounds and holes. It already has a few wee ferns growing.
BL visited a garden earlier in the year and it had something like it. Parsonage, Vicarage... I'll look it up.
East Ruston Old Vicarage....looks gorgeous. I'm having that!
Oops! It seems to have cropped the good bit off!

Ha! If only! I'd be straight down the auction like a shot. I'm not sure there's a market for c**p!
