In the Snow
Sorry for the break in posts recently! Not much has been happening in the garden due to the weather but I thought you may like to see the garden in all it’s snowy glory!
This is what it looked like to begin with, with the snow gradually falling. It was so beautiful outside but absolutely freezing!
This is what it looked like after a little bit more snow. As you can see by the table, it fell fairly thick, for the UK anyway. It was at this point we thought we needed to make a snowman!
Creating Plant Beds!
As I’ve said in an earlier post, we wanted a bit of an unusual shape to the garden. It’s all so easy to have straight boarders but they just don’t add character to these straight new build gardens.
The idea from the plan was to create a wavy journey from the house to the bottom of the garden (among the birds and the bees). As guests progress down the garden, they will pass colours and scents all the year round!
Well, that’s the plan.
This are Our Ideas
Before starting a garden, a plan is required. You might simply use a sketch or some of those amazing online garden design websites, but you will need a plan.
We chose to sketch our plan out and began by measuring the garden.
Using accurate measurements we were able to plan out what we wanted for our garden.
Going Green
We were a bit disappointed to see our lovely new house with only a patch of mud outside! Our house was beautiful but the garden was mud!
And, as you can see, a huge plate right in the middle of it! That was the last thing we wanted! However, the fence was built…
We needed lawn, and quick!
