The hard work that you have both put in has really paid off ..... a beautiful cottage garden to compliment your cottage. What’s next on your list ?🤣 XXXX
Perfection, a genuine 'cottage garden'John. But don't forget this well known quote - "A garden is a thing of beauty and a job forever" I even have those precious words on a little garden plaque - it sits by my front steps and was a gift from my Devon cousin Sue who also lived in a really beautiful cottage and has a fabulous green thumb. Ah the memories.
All the right words have already been spoken or written -- such a lovely spot for morning coffee, greeting the morning sun, reading the morning paper and meditating in the peace and quiet!
What a delightful garden haven you and Janet have created - a dream come true! How pleasant it will be to have your morning bucket of coffee there and well as your after work G&T - weather permitting, of course! Enjoy!
It looks great. The third picture has quite a Mediterranean garden look about it. xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful , you now have the perfect haven - what a good sister you have :)
