    I hate lawn ~ I love flowers

    Look what I've been up to while Mr Sheds has been away

    ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

    It's East facing, that brick wall, and is shaded after midday. I've put in hostas, fern, pulmonaria at the northern end and an acer, pansies,foxgloves, black bamboo, senetti, narcissus and tulips at the sunnier end.

      Still got to paint that old fence panel. It will be covered in Clematis and Sweet Peas by June, I hope.

      In the meantime, here's a close-up of the back border (north-facing & shady)

          He doesn't usually ~ doesn't even look at the garden on his way in to the TV

              That looks really good, funny but a trampolene in your garden was the last thing I expected to see lol
              I'm sure he wont mind.
              Gardening ..... begins with daybreak
              and ends with backache

                I hate the chuffing things.
                Actually, it's not so bad when the net is down, cos you can lie on your back all comfy like, and watch the clouds

                      That's lovely Sweepster.
                      Yes, well spotted, they are indeed Thalia.
                      For my last birthday & Xmas presents I have requested blue or white bulbs. These came from RustyLady.
