About me

i am so pleased to have found this website lots of lovely gardens and pictures and help too
I live in North Wales the garden is on three levels with lovely views to the Berwyn mountains there are wooded mountains to the front and rear
In my garden there is a small spinney with bluebells and wild flowers at the top of the garden. Rhododendrons and silver birches flank the arch and seat overlooking the view.
The lower garden has roses clematis japenese anenome numerous shrubs and trees, geraniums, peonies, lupins, alliums, foxglove etc as you probably gather it is a cottage type garden it's 3/4 of an acre in total and keeps me on my toes or should that be knees! my husband was seriously ill 3years ago so we had to close our business and retire he is unfortunately unable to help in the garden.
I don't grow veg at the moment but hope to turn a small section to lettuce beetroot and radish but i'm loathe to loose any flowers so might just grow them in tubs on the terrace! ( I have now planted them in an old wooden wheelbarrow and they are coming along nicely)
My three grown up married children all have gardens of their own my two sons prefer low maintenance gardens but my daughter is also a keen gardener I must have passed on the flower gene down the female line!!
I have four beautiful grandchildren two teenagers a boy and a girl and two under five a girl and a boy.
I love auctions and collect vaseline glass and anything beautiful and old that happens to be in my price range!
