my garden


Well, if you can call it a garden.
Snaping some before and after piccies, then will take some mree once flowers sorted.
Here it is before, and before anybody says it YES it was a complete tip, i hadnt been out there all last summer cos of ill health, and the year before I didnt go out very much either as was working nights then. HUbby made a right balls up of it and didnt half make it a mess.




ok, there still the stuff to go into the skip at the weekend, but here it is now:







this still looks a bit of a mess cos of the blankets etc over rabbit hutches, but they be gone in summer.



and the stuff in the corner at the back is for the skip. Add some plants and flowers in the pots and hanging baskets etc, and it should look better.

Re: my garden


Its looking alot better already CJ - Keep up the hard work and you will be able to sit and enjoy your garden in the nicer weather x

p.s. mine is all grass and hedges etc... but I am a hopeless gardener but will try and attempt to put colour etc... these coming months.

Re: my garden


Wow CJ, what an improvement!! I bet that'll look smashing in the summer.

That's a lovely photo of your boys as well.

Re: my garden


My before and after photos show how much effort went into the garden, as does yours CJ. Keep it up and you will LOVE your garden come summer when you can sit outside enjoying some sunshine.

Re: my garden


That looks miles better now CJ!! Keep up the hard work - it IS addictive, and even if you manage to do just a little bit a day, by summer you should have a fabulous garden!! Hanging baskets are a great way to add colour too (and they're quick to put together) - but need watering religiously every day as they dry out ever so quickly.
