My back garden is a teensy small space as with most newer houses (I wish housebuilders were forced to include allotment-sized plots) with poor soil and poor drainage, so most plants are in a built up bed at the back. I've been here 8 years now. The backgarden had the ambience of being on a ship's deck when we moved in - all badly-done decking and rope handrails - really awful.
A little look around then...
I love alliums, I had some at the old house too.
They're planted with a large fatsia, a standard holly, aquilegias, geraniums,
sisyrinchium and euphorbias
I do like the combination of purple and lime green
This is my secret corner behind the garage...
This potted clematis is the best it's ever been this year
I like mirrors in the garden and a few mosaics, tiles and statues...
...and old rusty fireplaces with mirrors behind them.
Cut and come again salad leaves in a sunny spot...
And my lovely fragranced 'Life Begins at Forty' Rose by the back door...
Then my picnic table (cheap ebay buy 4 years ago) painted willow green along with a metal bench and scrollwork green chair for sitting out in the warmer weather.
I hope you enjoyed that little look at my garden.
See you soon xx
