First job in June 06 was to clear the overgrown jungle.....
 
Then see what decent plants I could keep and plant the borders with some summer bedding
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
nice hydranger--kept it. Honeysuckle bug ridden so to go
 
 




















wisteria looks good - get rid of "mile a minute" climber which has turned into a 5 miles-a-minute version
 
 
 
 











 
 




mallow has grown too big - needs a hair cut - clematis looks a sorry state
 
 
 
 
 
 
 














virginia creeper needs training / mock orange good - lovely scent
 
 
 
 
 
 















old pond revived - previously buried & covered up,  hopefully no leaks...
 
 
 
 
 
 















 rockery created with pond in-fill and a few dozen alpines
