Catherine's Garden

[Catherine]

The pictures come out small, but when I click on them I see them as large. You have a lovely shady garden and way more room than I have. It looks like a gentle, peaceful place. No wonder the birds love it. I did not know that Fuchsia was a shrub. We only have it as a plant here. It just doesn't stand the winter.

I love where you walk past the bird feeder and there is a low stone wall and a path. A bridge will be a beautiful addition. Then you could cross the stream. Can you see it in the winter when the leaves have fallen?
Is there any way you could cut the Hazel back a lot and let it come up fresh? It will be interesting to see what your saplings do.

That is amazing about the Cyclamen. If you hadn't cleared stuff out it never would have had a chance. Gardens are wonderful places of mystery and possibility. It is sad to lose things, but it is also good. When one plant goes another can come in to replace it.

I can't wait to see our gardens in the spring.
