Spring 2005

Following the winter gales we had to take down a trellis and archway, and decided not to replace them. This opened up the ‘Mediterranean’ area

 

During the winter a mole appeared. We didn’t get mole hills but after watching it tunnel round two edges of the lawn we decided to get rid of the grass, and now have a more  ornamental scene.

The Spring borders looked good. Cowslips were out early in January and this year the birds didn’t peck at the crocus.

Our addition to the bottom of the garden was the frog trio – complete with hidden cassette.

Once again the auriculas never fail to please. This Spring there were several additions

The latest addition to the garden is a swinging hammock.

Behind the hammock there is a bamboo screen, replacing some of the conifers

Perhaps, now the garden makeover is complete, there will be time for that glass of wine ----

And lastly, a few more photos of Spring 2005
