Dream Garden Journal: wheel of the year

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.

Snow!

This winter has been early and cold for the British Isles. We've already had snow several times since mid-November, but today's 5 inches deserved an emergency extreme weather warning for London and the Home Counties. Still, it looks so beautiful!

Lengthening Days Growth Spell

Within me I plant a tiny seed
Of what I want, I love and believe.
With light comes growth swelling long,
I grow this garden bold and strong!

With the Sun this shall succeed.
