My garden today

I love it so much! It looks so tranquil and relaxing!

It looks cosy and homely the kind of place you could settle down comfortably with a book :o))

Lovely - what are your little trees Sheila?

Many thanks Karen, Amy and Shirley. The three small trees in the pic are, from left to right, Amelanchier lamarkii, Prunus serrula (planted for Chiara in April 2012), and Cercidiphyllum. I love trees!

Thanks Sheila - if I ever get my way and have the tall Cordylines removed these are the sort of small trees I would replace them with - OH take note! :o)

What a great garden, so casual and free. I am sure you have spent many hours achieving this wonderful sight.
I like the little island next to the main garden. So well done!

Oooh Posy, that's so sweet of you, thank you. I don't mind the "hours spent" one bit as I'd rather be in the garden than anywhere else!

Me too! :))

Just beautiful Sheila, love those background trees too. I used to have a cercidiphyllum, I kept it in a pot for many years as I didn't dare plant it in my little garden. It is surely one of the loveliest of trees, but a whopper eventually:-)

Thanks Ba . . I've now had this Cercidiphyllum for about six years, and it hasn't grown very much. Hopefully it won't become a 'whopper' as our soil is very heavy :)
