Small Garden Story

Over some 15 + years, I have been photographing the evolution of my small (85 x 15 foot) garden and it seems a waste not to put these records into some sort of context. Beginning here in April 2010 this Blog is intended to both act as a diary and to share past and present successes (and some failures), pleasures and disappointments with fellow garden-lovers. In due course, I intend to fill in some of the background and early days but that will have to wait until the winter months!

For the birds and the bees

I forgot to mention that my wonderful Kiftsgate rose has been a MAJOR attraction for bees.   There must have been literally hundreds on it some days....

Another thing they love is the honeysuckle whose scent is so delicious.   Here it is as a backdrop to a clump of Globe thistles - also bee favourites when they finally burst into dainty blue flowers...
