Changing things around in the front garden.


 Yesterday morning I had a really good walk with some friends. The scenery is absolutely stunning on this particular walk and it's always a joy to walk the route. When I got home Tony and I nipped out to a couple of local garden centres to see if they had a good quality garden arch. Changes are in progress in the front garden in order to use the space more productively.  At the moment I'm growing apples, pears, courgettes,  tomatoes and sweet potatoes in the front garden. I've had no luck with figs or plums unfortunately but the back garden plum trees are doing well. I'm planning on putting a couple of GreenStalk planters in front of the kitchen window.  I'll be able to grow a huge amount more in the space currently occupied by a big wooden planter. The planter has served me well but is starting to rot and won't last another year. The back garden is looking very colourful right now and it's a real pleasure pottering on outside when it's not too hot.

    1. It's nice knowing that it isn't sprayed with anything nasty.
