Venus Wrote:We have a huge garden which is mainly like a mini-wood. I've counted 34 trees visible from my son's bedroom window. Most of the trees are varieties of pine & beech. We also have several holly trees & some other trees, bushes & shrubs that I'm not familiar with. This part of the garden is very natural with an assortment of bulbs eg. crocuses, daffodils, snowdrops & tulips carpeting the ground. Surrounding our actual house are bright red tulips that have just flowered. Then we also have a walled atrium garden which is mostly lawn with flower beds surrounding & an apple tree in the centre. In the flower beds I've planted dahlias, lily bulbs, gladioli bulbs, a gardinia, two rhodedendrons, a peony, two honeysuckles & a jasmin. I still have 80 Irises & another 25 gladioli to plant. We're planning on having our Marriage Blessing in our garden so I basically have 2 months to have it looking amazing - hard work! :p
Sounds like a place I definately want to visit
