I wished for a little garden many times, then one day a very kind lady stopped me in the street and gave one to me .Things always happen when the time is right I just have to learn to be patient.
Our little garden. The daffodil bulbs we planted are called Cheerfulness and are scented. we made the cold frame and painted the metal table and chairs after getting them at our local tip.
We laid the brick path, haven't had the garden a year yet so a lot to do - managed to get my herbs in and sweet peas. A climbing rose and pear tree on the back wall.
I'm trying to show you here a pink cow parsley plant I bought at a plant fair at Poltimore House, you can just see it amongst the forget-me nots another favourite.
I like hiding little houses in the garden.
