We've been living here since we got married (25yrs ago this year) & the garden has developed over the years by trial & error. I'm the gardener & my wondreful hubby keeps the inside in order!!! We have Two children in their 20's now.
The addition of the conservatory in 2000 was the impetus for really getting my garden plan under way, as it provided an ideal 'corner' for my long awaited pond. The rest evolved from there, & I felt the other side of the garden needed 'balancing'.....hence the little patio was born!
