In My Garden

In My Garden
Taken in my garden between heavy rain showers last Saturday. Not much flowering yet , just one tulip (yesterdays shot) and quite a few Grape Hyacinth.

My garden gets very boggy when it rains and there will be lots of work to do when it dries out, but past experience tells me that it will take a couple weeks without rain before that happens! It's a jungle out there :-)))

Have a good week everyone :-) Thanks for all your visits, comments and yellow stars over the past week or so.

I love these two pictures Keith. Well displayed in the collage. My garden is the opposite to boggy, it's very rocky underneath. Let's hope this is a good and sunny week.

Thanks Rosa. When we first moved in back in the 80s, and for years afterwards we dug up lots of old bricks, paving stones and other builders detritus. We live in an end terrace house and one of our neighbours told us that when the builders finished the terrace they just dug a big hole and buried all the leftover stuff..!!

If I'm honest we struggle nowadays to keep the garden as nice as it should be, so for the last few years it's been a bit wild, but the birds and insects seem to like it.

It's been nice and sunny today but with a cold wind. The rest of the week is forecast to be a bit warmer and sunny, which will be good.

Probably better for wildlife to leave it a bit wild Keith, and it can still look good with some wild flowers sown. Warmer and sunny sounds just right :-))

Thank you Güni, I'm pleased you enjoyed these photos.

We have some bulbs planted around the tree stump and so we always leave the grass quite long.

Looks like a sizable garden with that tree Keith. Nice to see the spring flowers showing.

Regards. Herb

Yes, it's quite a big garden but to be honest, nowadays a bit too big...........which is why I would describe it as a bit wild at the moment.

Glad you like the flowers though..............and thanks for dropping in.

The tree is just a stump.........it was a large apple tree that had almost died. I've left the stump to use as a bird table when I get round to sorting out a top for it.

Well today my helper agreed to give my lawn it's first cut of the year!!!! We've not had the tremendous amount of rain that you've had, so it had dried out quite a bit. Apparently there is some small bits of cherry blossom out and also the white lilac is starting to appear. Great.

Ich mag diese ungezähmte Wildnis und das satte Grün. Die Traubenhyazinthen sehen wunderbar aus. Du hast einen schönen Garten, Keith!

I won't tell my wife you thinks it is an untamed wilderness............she'll get me out working on it..!!

Glad you like it though Wilhelm..............and thank you. The garden is a "work in progress".
