Early in the Spring, there was a special offer for buying bulbs, which I took advantage of. I planted about 100 bulbs haphazardly, not really expecting anything in particular to grow. Luckily, I have had some successes, and this is one of my favourites. I call it: The Big Daisy:
The herb garden is coming along nicely. The mint has been re-potted in a much bigger pot, purchased in the Wilkinson's sale. We also got this lavendar - for only £3! I really like the lilac colour of the pot.
New bee house - a birthday present from my lovely sister-in-law :)
We've had lots of bumble bees and butterflies visiting the garden all summer. Also, very recently, we've had big spiders building webs. I mean HUGE big spiders. I tried to take a picture but it didn't come out very well. I'll try again during the week.
This area of garden has been a complete failure - nothing's grown at all. If we stay in this house, this will be a big project for 2012. I think, with lots of work, it will become the vegetable patch.
New patio rose bush. Again, a present. From
Ladybird Nursery in Suffolk. Re-potted again from Wilkinson's sale (great deals on gardening stuff!)
