#Gardening
I had a bit of a boring patio area not really used for anything ๐ so I lifted a slab and created a little garden of low growing spreading plants ๐
I think it looks lovely ๐
I'm asking those who love the outdoors to post a picture. A picture that YOU took. Just a pic. No description. The goal is to regain peace and harmony without negativity. Please copy the text, put a picture on YOUR page, and let's look at these beautiful pictures.
Here's mine. ๐ท

#Gardening
โฆsoโฆ Iโm doing one of my gardening jobs and someone walks past saying โbet you wish your garden looked like that oneโ pointing next door โฆ I didnโt have the heart to tell him that it was actually my garden he was pointing at and that I was working ๐๐๐คทโโ๏ธ๐
#Gardening
โฆ so I brought my Dahlia tubers in from the shed,grabbed some pots and compost and went crazy in the kitchen ๐
Now Iโve potted them up as well ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ stop me Iโm outa control ๐
#Gardening

#Gardening
Spent all day building a new log edge/mini fence and refilling with fresh pine cones ๐

I started gardening to counteract the fact all my boys were growing up ๐
Last July during the lockdown my marriage finally came to an end ... and the garden became my solace ๐
The love between a girl and her plants knows no bounds ๐

After reading up on it Iโm even more against no mow may now โฆ
The best idea is to leave a patch to grow wild somewhere out of the way and quiet โฆ
Donโt just let wildlife move in for a month and then ruthlessly chop it down in June please ๐๐๐
