This might look lovely, but we have [like WTD] mostly moss, clover and [recently departed] dandelions. Happy here though. R-

My dandelion crop failed this year.

Lawn still looking "greenish" - I did use the sprinkler for a couple of hours a week or so ago. Also the three Lime trees had their bottom branches removed back in November (needed planning permission), this gives more light to the top of the garden and keeps the neighbours at the back a little happier. Greenhouse is full of tomato plants - all looking healthy. Pam is the gardner, I look after the lawn and the edges - and any heavy (digging
) work that needs doing.
It has taken forty six years to get it looking like this. At the time of putting our names down for house in August 1976 - it was not ready for occupation until April 1977, Ideal Home magazine did a garden planning service - the cost was £5.00 - so we went for it, and this was the result. We have thought about down-sizing, but not sure we are ready for that yet - if ever!

Me too but here's my front garden. The roses probably have more flowers on them than I can ever remember having before.
