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.

Autumn Colour ~ 2 ~ Red Berries

Red Autumn Berries


Hawthorn Berries


Ripe red Hawthorn berries


Flowering Nutmeg
Lycesteria Formosa
The Blackbirds love these berries and will jump up to snatch them one by one


Cotoneaster berries


Honeysuckle berries

This year we have heard that there is a great crop of berries everywhere
This may be a result of the hard, cold and snowy winter
Others suggest it is a warning of a hard, cold and snowy winter to come!
