Every week things improve even more and it’s wonderful to see just how colourful and full it’s all looking. A massive help has been the installation of a tap and hose (although it did take us a rather embarrassingly long amount of time to put the hose together…)

The garden is also now home to a great selection of “tacky” treats from the seaside – lots of twirling colourful things! I think it’s true to say that no garden is complete without some tacky toys! All we need now is a gnome…!

There are so many plants the garden is positively bursting in bloom. Flowers and colour erupt all over the ground. We’re going to plant a few more things here and there, especially some crawlers up the railings, but it’s doing brilliantly.

Neither the arbour or bench are in place yet, we need some expert help for that, but that should be sorted soon.

Obviously summer holidays are round the corner and whilst the watering will be taken care of by the nursery we will be going in a few times to do the rest.

So that’s an update on the garden and to edit an old saying slightly - ‘things can only get even better’…

Please note – pictures should be going up later tonight and things will be changed (such as the picture at the top!).
