In my garden i have a tiny vegetable patch, all the veg are grown from seed, and i have Cleo, my Leopard Tortoise. We also have lots of bird feeders and many, many Starlings!!! Just waiting for all my flowers to bloom

I would love a garden but dont have one. Instead i rent an allotment which was a lifesaver to go to during Covid and when the tourist season makes the town heaving with visitors, too much for me sometimes
Cleo is a handsome tortoise!

One year i found a toad in my allotment so i made him a little pond to swim in with steps to get out and made him a shelter. Ungrateful Mr Toad bug***ed off!
Had a frog in the following year but nothing since. Pond probably not luxurious enough - somewhat ‘bijou’ !

Well first up… here’s valerian to wish you a good morning! She’s in full bloom now and the flowers have such a delicate perfume that belie the strength of the root!

I used to have a staffie, her name was Tazzy. She was amazing with the children, she would lay by their cots until they woke, a priper Nanny dog. We had her for 15 years, and still miss her

This Lupin!
We planted it last year, just sort of stuck it in the ground where there was a space and it’s more than doubled in size this year!
It’s massive, colourful and impressive!
And it helps me to forget about the swathes of my neighbours ivy that’s threatening to choke the rest of the garden!

Awh, lupins, theyre so beautiful, one of my favourites, but unfortunately a favourite of the snails 
in my garden too. I also love delphiniums and foxgloves, all the country garden flowers.

You’re clearly more organised than us, @Sunflower. We have a long, narrow garden (typical London terrace) which used to host annual garden parties for 20 odd friends and now resembles a jungle, with around 15 Acer’s vying for supremacy, a lilac that shields us from nosey neighbours during the Summer and a ‘lawn’ that, for reasons unknown, has refused to grow this year!

Oh crikey, not at all. I was surprised that any of them grew as they were mostly out of date seeds. I would love an organised garden, it will get there one day
