Ok everyone. Let’s take a walk around the garden. I’m pretty proud of what’s going on there at the moment and should be surrounded by things to eat soon. The idea is that we will go for another walk around the garden in a month or so when everything has grown a bit more.
Let’s start by the back door. Immediately to our right, we have the new cherry tree, which I am massively excited about…
Then a bit further along is the new plum tree that we bought the day we came back from Italy, to soften the blow of no longer being in Italy.
Following the fence on the right hand side of the garden, we have the strawberry plants…
…and the tomato plants….
Inbetween the tomato plants and the lawn, near the rosemary bush, is the lavender plant, bursting out of its pot…
…then at the end of the lawn is the mystery tree our neighbour gave us. We did figure it out and now I’ve forgotten what it’s called.
My photographs didn’t turn out very well for the fuschia, the marigolds, the trailing lobelia or the pansies so you will just have to trust me that they are there and when we take another walk around, I’ll show you them.

is the mystery tree a white lilac… it looks as though it should smell divine

Ah, that’s what it is! Lots of people said it probably was one of those so I think you’re right! It smells really lovely.

Yeh, I kept strawberries on a balcony once. Months I looked after them for, months! The result? 3 strawberries.

It would be a nice garden to walk around in!
That is one thing I loved in England…the gardens.

I’m lucky that I have one at all in London and double lucky that it’s filled with such nice things 🙂
