Thanks Guys for your comments, Well most of the Wrought Iron went up today, i can now let Cassie in the garden as it has Gates, YaY... Oooh and it looks great.. Still lots of Diggin to do and a new Lawn, But the planting is gonna make the garden, not because of what I do, but because a garden is nothing without Plants, I have 3 phormiums, 3 Big Daddy Hostas, the Purple Datura are Sprouting as i speak,and ive sown pink Cannas, I Deffinatley want foxgloves and Im gonna do some serious Plant searching, I want to try Plants ive never tried before, so from now on when i see plants i like on GoY im going to write them down.. Ive been Saving pics also, so i have a Visual record and my stomach just done a flip because im gett'n excited haha

Ahh! Can I tempt you into trying to plant some plants specifically for wildlife? I went to the local library and read several books on the subject. I also wrote long lists of all the plants recommended for bees (seriously declining in numbers poor things!) butterflies, birds and other wildlife. You'll be surprised at what you can attract with specific plants! If you visit the BBC wildlife website, there is a link to another website, which has over 500 plants listed for wildlife. Fascinating stuff. Nearly all my new plants are just for wildlife, much to my dd disgust, as she hates wildlife, silly girl!! Her big brother made her frightened of them as a small girl, tut, and she's never gotten over it!!! Mind you, I'm one to talk, I can't touch worms! Eugh! Let us know if I talked you into it!!

Right, I've made a 2nd blog for you to go to and read if you're interested. It'll tell you how to find out more about which plants to have if you're interested in attracting bees butterflies etc. Happy reading!

It's looking good so far Dee. Will you have any pennies left for plants?
