Tidying up
Posted: Sunday 1 August, 2010
I've been tidying up the garden this week, in anticipation of having some viewers. It's been lovely - the lavender hedge has come on well and is moving with bees, as is the borage and the marjoram.
Some marigolds that I planted last year have self seeded and are mingled with self seeded poppies, chamomile, mallow and gowans in a riot of pink, red, yellow, orange and white. I could never deliberately grow something as lovely.
Lovely as it is, it's in the vegetable garden so I set off today to weed it all out. As I started, I could see that it was full of tiny frogs, bees and ladybirds so I'll just have to leave it meantime and hope the viewers are understanding.

We lost a few plants, although the bay and rosemary survived along with the lavender. Maybe we missed the worst being close to the river.

The place looks just wonderful!! I am sure you will have a lot of buyers! Love the walkway with the heather and it has such a pretty view! How are you and Dan holding up through all of your new adventures? Great I hope! We are having a lot of dry weather here. Luckily we have a good well. Love the pictures and the very interesting history. Maybe one day you can put together a little book on the total history of this place.

I sure hope we get a few genuinely interested viewers. A friend also has a house on the market - she's had 43 viewers in four weeks but a lot are timewasters, which is a shame.
It does look lovely IMHO and it's been a very happy home so hopefully whoever buys it will have an equally happy life there. It has good vibes - lots of light!

Looks lovely! I'm surprised your lavender is doing so well. Most of mine died off in the extreme cold last winter, along with my rosemary and bay
