18.05.08 The Front Garden


Whilst we have been renovating, we had acquired lots of old copper piping and scrap metal. Rob weighed this in yesterday and got £250 from it. This has bought the plants for the front garden. I can't believe how expensive the plants are and in this shot alone is £76 worth! We have only completed this corner section as the garden centre did not have all the box hedging that we required.
The garden is starting to transform and whilst it will be about 3 years before it has properly developed, I think it is beginning to look great.
The courtyard where all the scrap metal was has been swept and Rob has hung the hanging baskets up. The pots that the plants from the front garden are in are now dotted around. Rob has also put up the outdoor clock that I bought him for our first wedding anniversary. It's not worthy of a picture, but it does look better.
