Does anyone else love their garden? I love mine although it's a bit of a mess, I've not been able to do as much as normal due to a bad shoulder. Earlier in the year, knowing I wouldn't be able to do so much, when I did a big spring clearing and weeding session I scattered loads of flower seeds, just to fill in any gaps, so now I have a slightly wild bed of established perenials and annuals that I hope will self seed, such as echiums, marigolds, love in a mist and verbena. I cleared out more weeds and stuff and am now waiting to plant some crocosmia's and a massive sedum I was given. Hopefully in the next couple of years I will have the bed as I want, with all year interest and plenty of forrage for polinators.
I want to re-invigorate by shrubs too, with more or new roses, lavender's, and ferns, I have geums floating through all of this as well as chives as they such a brilliant companion for roses, helping to keep black fly and aphids off them.
Come winter I will replant the old veg patch with more fruit, hopefully a couple of small fruit tree's and some raspberries and currants and maybe a raised bed for blueberries.
