Welcome to my blog!

Here, I journal the transformation of our tiny London backyard into a dream garden. I hope you will like it!

A dream garden, for me, is an outdoor space filled with rich colours and seductive scents, offering beautiful flowers, interesting textures and tasty morsels for our delectation. Also a source of nourishment for the local wildlife - birds, butterflies and bees. A space to enjoy with my SO, friends, family, and, of course, our cats. Somewhere to sit and have coffee, or even a meal, and a tiny patch of grass to lie on in the fleeting sunshine of the English summer. And, we're almost there...

Unless stated otherwise, all photos are by me (or my SO) and are clickable.

To do list

1. Finish removing the bramble

2. Measure future paved area and calculate how many paving stones are needed

3. Dig the horseshoe border and add soil improvers

4. Measure for trellis around the bin area and on the garage wall

5. Buy paving stones and coarse sand

6. Remove turf, lay down sand and paving

I can do all of the above, though I will expect help with #6. I just wish it weren't raining! But this is Sparta, I mean London...
