The garden still lots to do.

But coming along slowly.

Iris.


Daisy we bought last week in the bird and bee friendly garden.


Video of Dillon this morning.


Red poppy flowered bought yesterday in the sale.


Hover fly on one of the flowers from the wild seeds we planted.


Verbena bought last week.


Poppy.


The bit of garden cleared of the loose strife and Monbretia. You can just see my Lupin bought yesterday in the sale.








Peas.


Beetroot and lettuce.


Outside tomato plant has one tomato already and a small one following.


Runner beans.


Greenhouse tomato two tomatoes on this plant too.




The bare bit of garden on the left is going to have Buddlia on there nothing else does too well due to the conifer hedging. We have the lilac Buddlia but there are still a few colours left I would like in there small white one planted already.

You can just see my Hollyhock we bought yesterday in the sale.






Now the bare bit is on the right which will have Buddlia's and shrubby plants planted.

Hope you enjoyed the trip round the garden.

Lynn it is looking absolutely fabulous already - well done on making it look so beautiful even if it is not finished yet!

As for that video of gorgeous Dillon - I have watched it three times now, each time with a grin on my face!

Thank you so much for putting up the photos and video for us.

Absolutely beautiful pictures!!!!! It looks like you've got a great start. I'll have to post my garden too. Discovered Salvia is a nice hearty colorful plant, also the first year trying strawberries and second year with tomatoes.
We had a weed overgrown by the street.

We cut it way down and trimmed the trunk so the top is tree-like. I bricked around the base and added fresh soil. I work in a garden area so all kinds of interesting annuls to try. I used to be all matchy matchy with plants but a spike here and a few daisies there, found out a big mix of colors is fun.
