I thought we could pop outside
and look around the garden..
You may gasp in admiration
at my geranium display.
Must cut back the lavender.
A gardener's work is never done.
Cloches?
We have cloches...
And here is the tomato house,
the vinery is behind us and
the mushroom house is second on the left.
These flowerpots are installation art...
I like to mix in a few visual metaphors
some people are so serious about vegetables.
Fan trained cherries...
doesn't everyone grow their own cherries?
And here are the apples.
I divide them by alphabetically, by county.
and finally the potting shed.
I'm all about sheds.
I'm thinking of painting it grey.
Errr...time to 'fess up
...it's not my garden
...it's at Audley End

ReplyDeleteWe've had four, FOUR, tomatoes.
Oh, the joys.
*swoon* the stuff of dreams.
ReplyDeleteAny particular shade of grey for your shed?
My idea of heaven!
ReplyDeleteIf I had a potting shed like that I would think I had died and gone to heaven..........
ReplyDeleteYou botanical tease.
ReplyDeleteYou made me smile. I recognized the apple sign. Oh to be so organised with a garden. Just been attacking mine and nettles seem to be winning!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous heavenly place.
ReplyDeleteI *thought* I recognised it. We were there not three weeks ago pretending to be WWII recruits. As you do.
ReplyDeleteHa.
ReplyDeleteThat was so beautiful to see - it reminds me of a garden very dear to my heart and took me right back down memory lane ... Shades of Thomas Hood indeed!

ReplyDeleteI am lusting now!

ReplyDeleteHow lovely! Dream gardens are wonder-full.
ReplyDelete(p.s. Sometimes in a long, wet Spring, I have a mushroom house... but not on purpose.)
