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.

Bank Holiday!

Perfect time to do some gardening...

In addition to planting a new bright pink oleander and blue hydrangea, we (well, really my SO) put up a new trellis on the patio fence. The troughs contain (amongst tobacco flowers and catanache caerulea)cream-coloured sweet peas that will, I hope, scramble up the trellis and surround us with a beautiful scent when we start having breakfast/coffee/meals on the patio.


The rose pics are just a bonus! ;)
