    Took a snapshot yesterday of everything flowering so far in the back garden. Have been letting it go pretty wild the last few years. Counted nearly 40 different types of flower, not bad for a small garden in May.

    What a nice selection, I can match most of them in my garden except the borage on the bottom row, I must try again with it.

    Starting to bloom here now. My geraniums and pincushions are slow to get going though!

    Wow! What a transformation! Fair play!

    Thanks. Had a professional do the paving and fencing but the the rest is my own work.

    New build house only moved in late October 2021. Big site about 1.25 acres and I was not going to be mowing it all...got the builder to just to level it all out and put down some no2 lawn seed in October, eek!. To be honest it did sprout in November and got a "bit" of color but it then took off in spring time. There are some of the patches in the lawn/field that patchy but every day its coming on.

    Decided to let the grass grow long and cut paths through it and around the edges and its beginning to look great. We have a small area just in front of the patio that is a traditional lawn but its only about 10m x 3m. Got about 200+ 2-4ft bareroot trees over the winter and put them around the edges and a few spots all native trees mostly whitethorn but also including crabapple, elder, willow, hazel, and alder

    This is the back of the house and down at the bottom corner, the grass on the right hand side here is the old farm pasture that has not been cut in about 2 years and its looking good also grass on the left of the path is the new lawn. The paths are great they do lead you down the garden and encourage you to walk around it...even saw my 18 year old son walking down the paths one evening.

    My mother's beautiful back garden. Moved in the week I was born 41 years ago and it was a pile of builder's rubble.

    A 'wild patch' in the garden. The foxgloves and a few other things are self-seeded, the daisies, marigolds and chamomile were moved from other bits of the garden in a haphazard sort of way.

    If you ever want to ignore a plant, I can recommend this one. They’ve been in an unheated conservatory for the past year, maybe watered twice.

    And then they produce this. Plants are amazing.

    Waiting for lots of plants to grow. Some dahlias have already flowered and doing well.

    I took this photo 2 weeks ago. The side of the house. The beach trees are doing very well these last 3 years and one is even giving off seeds.

    First time taking leaf cuttings this Summer and all five cuttings doing well with new buds. This time of year the garden is pretty crowded with plants.
