welcome to GoY!!

will be very interesting to see how it all develops, i love the stonework

Thanks, more pictures in the link which I can't seem to make as an active hyperlink.

ah, sorry missed that. you can add lots of pictures to these blogs if you want to.

i love that curved bed around the house, very clever. you will find lots of really lovely and beautiful ideas on this site. if you look at the bottom of the page you could click on d for design ideas etc.

I didnt know about that google+ site for photos ~ how do you get on with it? can you upload a lot at once?

And a big welcome from me too!

It's going to be really really beautiful...I can foresee it.:)))))

Nice layout, like the concentric circles very much - what's the plan for the bare areas in between?

Stones / pebbles between the rings

I like the design!

Welcome to Goy, I do like the look of that already and will be interested in seeing it develop....

thank you segovia

Cant wait to see how it all comes together, must be great having all that space to plan and design your garden :)

It is the end of an 18 month project and I am getting a bit tired of the upheaval, the space is nice to have but its going to cost and the budget is running low.

Welcome to GOY Segovia....loving what you have done so far.....looking forward to seeing you progress :)

Thanks for all the comments and support so far, the blog will be updated regularly over the next few weeks, I hope to start planting in about 4 weeks from now.

What plants are you planning to put in?

I have a planting list, If I can figure out how to post it I will share it.

That will be interesting, thank you.

Will it copy and paste into here?

Planting list may have changed as I now have more space, I'll keep you posted

I have a planting list and a date for planting. I am looking forward to next year as I fear I have left it a bit late this year to reap the benefit.
