have a beautiful garden

Im rather excited, I bought a few seed packets today. Rosemary, Lavender, Black Pansys. Also, my bat flower seeds arrived today, yay!

Summer is here (for us in the southern hemisphere anyway) and Im again looking at my garden in all its wild glory. What to do now?
RV, your ‘how I did it’ has inspired me to begin a container garden of my own, in some pots in our own court yard, maybe even a Terrarium in my bedroom would be nice. Mmh, all the possibilities.

With the rain confining me within warm, dry doors I have been day-dreaming about what I want my garden to look like when I have re-grown my green thumb, in a manner of speaking. With carpets of violets and baby’s tears, the cool marble of an ivy covered statue to the warm sunlight as it filters though the greenery of surrounding trees onto patches of pansies like Nan always grows. Bursts of colour from foxgloves and bluebells and “wild flowers” shaded by the ferns to roses of many a colour in full bloom. And tucked away in a corner, my little vegetable garden.

I stood in my “garden” yesterday and had a good look at it. The first thought that entered my head was “Its dead!” most of my garden had been turned into vegetable patches, that are starting to die out. I need to find a balance between vegetables and flowers.
* Sigh * When it stops raining I think I will go out and try to salvage what may remains amongst the decaying greenery, the rest can be compost. As they say, waste not, want not.
