My Garden

Welcome to my garden blog; we have lived in this house for 32 years and the garden was virtually bare when we moved in. I think we had 2 Queen Elizabeth roses and some Rhubarb!
The small front garden however had 9 huge clumps of orange Mombresia around the lawn's edge.
We garden on heavy clay which is challenging but over the years we've worked out what works and what doesn't.
The garden has been a playground for our three children over the years and we are not precious about it but we do know what we like.
I hope you enjoy following it through the year.

These photos show how the garden looked a few weeks ago in the depths of the coldest winter in more than 30 years. As I start my Blog the first day of spring has just passed and the signs are all there and give hope for a colourful time ahead. The bird table is being regularly visited by a variety of birds, big and small & of course the squirrel!
