        Hi Upsydaisy, no, the pic has a hint of formality about it whereas my garden is overplanted Cottage style.:coffee::snorky:

        This is what my garden looks like.........the entrance to the wildlife pond

        It's mostly planted with several thousand varieties of Hardy Perennials and so it tends to run itself, with the odd sorting out from me now and then........and it is full of scents and colour:hapydancsmil::hapfeet:

        And this sits outside of my Kitchen door:heehee:

            Well, it's a result of impulsive buying over a decade or three, Verdun.:dunno: I've got over 183 Clematis alone as they are a passion of mine.....but my problem is that every plant is my favourite plant!!!:heehee:
