Dumb question time. Garden aspect

I feel like I need to apologise for even asking this!

Trying to sleep and obviously my mind comes up with these questions....

I want to know the aspect of my garden.

I always thought it was East because I open my patio doors and I am facing East but when I walk to the bottom of my garden and turn back to face my house, its obviously West.

so would my garden be East facing or West facing?

Again! Sorry x

 

Good question! I think it's the aspect looking outwards from the house that counts. So if a house wall gets morning sun it would be east-facing, as would the garden in front of it. Mind you, the point at which the sun rises throughout the year changes quite a bit.

 

Is this the front garden or back.

 

Could be a side garden or a roof garden

 

The options are endless.

 

Back garden

That’s good to know. I’ve only been able to track the sun path on 09/3 when we had sun pretty much all day. Trying to get a feel for spring/summer sun!

right now I’d love a non overcast/cloudy day!

 

will you stop giving away my gardening plans for the year please

 

On the 21st of this month the sun will rise in the east and set in the west, after that date it rises increasingly north of east and sets increasingly north of west up until the longest day.
Just another pointless piece of information.

 

Plenty of sun at the moment in the Cotswolds... All my seedlings are loving it

 

My son rises about 5.30am Monday to Friday for work.

 

So what time does he "set".

 

That depends. If he is anything like me, I am now counting multipurpose compost to help me drift off..
