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.

More updates

This is the box of radish and kohlrabi seedlings, sowed a few weeks ago:


Jerusalem artichokes have sprouted too (both pods look much the same at the moment):


Here's a bay laurel with a clematis behind it, against the garage wall at the far end of the garden:


In the corner are some foxgloves, which look like slugs or snails have been at them:


Finally, a look at some new acquisitions that are yet to be planted :):
