@darrenboyj Thank you Darren --there is a lot going on as I like it with some interest all year round - unfortunately I am not able to cope with annuals -the growing-on & planting out etc - so my aim is to have perennial that will cut out a lot of the work !! And at the moment with Gary's help we cope !!
@fueast Thanks Alison , this was designed & planted by my late husband & myself & added to & replenished over the years --we always worked so well together & was my best pal !!! -so nice to reflect & remember the good times & laughs we shared !!
@markp Thank you Mark ! @malc Thank you Malc this is the way I like it-- all the plants emerging with one another -with no room for the weeds to grow ( or at least they are not so obvious !! )

Sorry I'm such a Johnny Come Lately! This is a lovely shot, but also GREAT garden planning on your part! Nice and full, with wonderful variation in size, shape, color, texture. Amazing!
@carolb Thank you so much Carol -it was well worth waiting for your most complimentary comments -I do love my garden & have spent many happy hours planning working &enjoying my garden, unfortunately these days the arthritic conditions I suffer prevent me do as much as I'd like to ---but then that's life !!
