The Plans...

OK, so we've been in our house now for 3 wonderful months and we have barely touched the garden aside from some weeding and pruning.

I've harvested some flowers from the garden for indoors which is a quick and easy way to show you some of the pretty plants we already have:

Our current plan (as doodled by Matt and I at the bottom of our shopping list) is as follows:

We intend to:

• Dig up the oak (challenge accepted).
• Reshape the borders.
• Dig up all the black plastic sheeting and re-lay it deeper in the borders (currently there's no soil on top of it at all).
• Put some of the sheeting down under the path to stop the wretched dandelions growing out from under it!
• Lay the middle to lawn.
• Construct veg boxes that border the decking.
• Make a herb box under the kitchen window.
• Plant some more plants around the existing shrubs and trees.
• Paint the decking.
• Sit out in the garden. :)

As we introduce new plants, I'll talk about plant-care too!
