After a week of rain the sun came out on Friday and it has been lovely this weekend. Been in the gardening tidying up the beds. The slugs have got to the hosta after all.

I became interested in gardening in 2007 after some bulbs I planted in 2006 grew. In 2007 I planted more and more including over 200 bulbs at the end of the year. In March 2008 I landscaped the garden and had bigger flower beds made and planted these up. For the first time I grew tomoatos from seed. At the end of 2008 I planted a further 200 bulbs. In 2009 I did very little. This is a photo journal of how the garden has changed and things have grown.
