GARDEN GLIMPSES 1

 
As you can see from the photograph of the rose arch, there is plenty of foliage - but not all of it is rose bush. I have purposefully allowed the bindweed to grow surrounding the 2 rose plants which are both doing well and making plenty of growth below. I have no objection to pretty, large, white flowers and nor do the bees, despite bindweed being classed as a weed in this country.

The poly tunnel - now just over half way emptied - is still visible behind the overhang of tumbled tree. There is a mix of next door's holly tree and elderberry tree along with blackberry brambles overhanging the yard that I have left. I hope to clear and dispose of the poly tunnel at some point during the remainder of this year and use the ground for a veg plot in 2015. for now, the birds may benefit from extra berries, however.

Here is one collection of stuff from inside the poly tunnel, awaiting a trip to the tip. The dartboard is too warped to donate or sell, the plastic stool-table too broken and fragile to use, the broken shade also has no stand...







Alas, the patio leaves something to be desired at present. I need to sell/donate the plastic chairs and to de-foliate the area as well as take the white former cupboard to the tip and locate a new home for the dustpan and brush I use on the bird table and 2 stone jars.
