This is my garden: this year's projects have been the patio and the water features.

{rose bed and bit of tatty grass} I moved the rosebed, filled in the sunken path and laid a patio; erected a rose arch; put in a water feature (pot of water with fountain which bubbles over stones) and a bench to sit and enjoy the sun. {somewhere to sit in the sun and enjoy the butterflies}
This was before: (above) My "stream" (below) Back to home page
Making the "stream" feature in the lower garden: marked out; digging down through black, coal-like deposits; and finished feature with bridge, lantern and cat.

(Next year's target is a summer house!)
