Buddha's Retreat~just for San!


Buddha's Retreat~just for San!

This is the Buddha I got in a sale, and resides in this corner,next to my Spirea.I have a Gleditsia tree at the back, so as it matures, it should look great! Art can work alongside planting~and provides a calming effect for this particular corner.

Thank you Dotty~it kind of works in this corner, and looks great when the Spirea next to it is in full bloom~really brightens up quite a shady area.
Lol, San, glad you like~hope late dinner was enjoyable! :~))

Beautiful statue - how tall is he? I have just the place for a larger Buddha in my garden, but the only ones I have seen have not been as lovely as this.

Hi Katnip, hang on, I will just find out for you......ugh, it's awful wet out there today! It is;80cm tall,60cm width, and 40cm deep. I got him from Homebase, if that's any help. He is resin based, so not too heavy, and I must admit, I really like him in this corner of the garden. I have solar spotlights which light him up of an evening too, if I can find a photo of it, I will post for you :~))

Thanks Flori, hope you didn't get too wet! Just looked on their website - not available now :( Will keep looking though.
I bought a dark resin based standing Buddha last week, about 30" high, he never got as far as the garden he is living in my lounge instead. Hence the search for another.

Hi Katnip, that's a great pity about it no longer being available, but if I do come across another one, I promise I will let you know asap, and no, I didn't get too soggy honest! Ha ha ha :~))x
