Our roses are just beautiful at the moment specially next to the lavender.
I am not a gardener & only weed when there is a dire need but I do like to have a tidy pretty garden.
Luckily the natural layout of our oval garden edged with oak trees pretty much looks after itself so minimum effort on my part is needed. It helps that Harry is very enthusiastic grass mower so the lawns look fantastic.
I am sorry to say I never left one comment last night. We were out with friends then came back for our pudding before watching the big EU debate on TV.
Three good things:
1. The smell of garlic coming out of the oven!
2. I have ordered my photos for the show.
3. A new Lancashire Life to read.
@busylady No I certainly do t Judith, I don't do any if I can help it! Would love a proper miscellaneous border with sweeping flowers like delphiniums but no way will it happen in this garden. The roses here are in some stone troughs.
It is a lovely rose.. it looks like a lovely heritage rose with a nice perfume.. My gardening sounds a bit like yours now... keep it to a minimum .. It the lawn is mowed all looks tidy... only I am the lawn mower,.
@peggysirk We are voting Leave Peggy. The biggest decision we will ever have to make for the UK. It's very close 50/50 result so every vote counts. I will be up all night watching, I love anything like this! I could get into big debates but have learned to keep my mouth shut!
@happypat I admire your sovereign spirit! I'll be tuned in for the outcome of the vote. It takes place today, right?
I love all things political too...although the current US presidential campaign, sadly, leaves me with nothing but a desire to take a hot shower. Not sure how we got to this point.
I'm a bit like you - leave the garden to do its own thing but look after the lawns. Voting here is going to be a big debate! No-one seems to know what to vote - except Kerry!
@peggysirk Not sure either Peggy but I think the world is in revolt everywhere! I would never have thought we would be as close as this to leaving the EU but times are changing & there is revolt in the air!
@jackie8 No Jackie I'm hopeless & not interested in gardening! This was a fluke as Harry chopped down the roses when we put the new fence up & they have really done well since.

How exciting that you ordered your prints for the show - good luck!
