A couple of corners in my garden


Coz my garden as a whole is a 'bit of a mess' - it will be a LOT of a mess come mid-next-week as the path and grass is going to be removed, I thought I'd show you a couple of the nicer corners that have already been completed, and next week I'll chart the whol gardens' transformation

Here is conifer corner. Fifi like sleeping in there It has a different coloured conifers with different textures at different heights. 'Scuse the bin



This is my collection of grasses (not exhaustive), but this is the one place where they are all together in one place. The one in the foreground is called 'Darmuid' as I bought it for a fiver of Mr Gavin's stand at Chelsea last year



These are the only splashes of colour I have in the garden . . . some of my geraniums! They're not flowering full-pelt yet, but I just love them as a flower and they're so easy to look after - an absolute must this year

Nice corners!

btw - did you know there is (at least) one firm doing a 'concrete makeover' service? Don't know anything about them and only half read the ad but I think they said they can make it look like wahtever you want - mosaic, brick, flags etc. Not like the 'we'll do your drive with concrete and make it look like brick paving', more like the sw*nky (oh, this automatic censor )polished concrete kitchen/bathroom tops etc.

Or maybe you've already had your unwanted concrete broken up and taken up? Thought it might be worth looking into to save work/mess?

You'll have to google - sorry I didn't keep the reference - I meant to
