I love how the garden looks at the start of spring...green & lush with a hint of colour starting to come through. I thought you might enjoy a look at the garden waking up from it's winter sleep.
Front yard:
The front border has blue & purple plants. I'm sorry I missed taking photos of the rosemary covered in pretty little blue flowers & the purple Iris's in flower. The lower level has white plants such as the Arum Lilies that flower in spring & in late spring to early summer my red & white grafted roses will give a beautiful show of Christmas colour.
Garden at the back:
Rock Rose (pink) starting to flower. White Hebe's have stopped flowering. David Austin Roses & Floribunda Roses in white & pinks will start flowering in late spring to early summer, this David Austin is early.
Courtyard:
The pink & white colours come from the Pansies, Star Jasmine & Pierre de Ronsard Rose.
Courtyard view of the backyard leading down to the vegetable patch. It looks very green at the moment but there will be colour in the summer when the blue Hydrangea's flower.
White Hebe's in full bloom & one white Tulip (others have already died back). Rock Rose starting to flower. In summer the Hebe's stop flowering & the Roses will be out in full bloom.
Planting has started in the planter boxes. Silver Birch in all it's glory. Pear trees have finished flowering & are now starting to get their leaves.
The Vegetable Patch.
Look I have strawberries...yummo. Can't wait for hubby to pave under the pergola so I can put my little table & chair there.
Looking from the BBQ Deck:
Silver Birch blocking my view of the vegetable patch & pergola. Thank goodness the trees block the shed as I still haven't stained it.
Gorgeous & green with pops of colour...don't you just love spring!
