Yesterday my Mum came to tea, and looking out at my garden she announced “What an overgrown mess!”
My ears could not believe this terrible calumny! This attack on my green and lush sanctuary, my little recreation of Eden. Then the scales fell from my eyes and I realised that my mother had spoken the truth and I had deceived myself.
I decided to redeem myself and so today I spent some hours doing some major pruning of the garden that has really grown due to all the heavy rain intermixed with short periods of sunshine. A major chopping back was something that the garden really did require and it has left me feeling totally exhausted (but just a bit pleased with my efforts).

I did enjoy it and the garden looks better for it too! I even rediscovered some plants that I’d forgotten I had, hidden by the general jungle. π
