Been busy but.....

I have been busy turning the courtyard garden of the shop into a welcoming space for warmer weather visitors to enjoy (unlessI add a fire pit!!)  There were constraints to work with  - namely trees - an olive, a lemon, a  mandarin, 2 figs, 1 pear and either a peach or a nectarine - it did nothing much this year so the jury is still out on which it is. Much undergrowth ripped out and the cleared space gave roon for a new vision - lots of peonies!!!! 9 Tree peonies already in and hopefully I can fit in at least another dozen or so and then lovely bits and pieces to complement the stars of the garden. More later
