About Me
I started this blog in 2008 to record how my garden developed, it quickly became a gardening journal and I have loved it every since. I am passionate about horticultre despite working in higher education administration. However now, 2013, I want to re-engage with my early hobbies of sewing, knitting and crochet so this blog will start to have a wider range of entries that aren't all garden related.
I love reading your comments and I do hope you enjoy the blog.

Very beautiful.
Great positioning.
Don’t think that I’ve got that colour in my collection. Swap?
Thank you Anna for your kind offer but the snai isnt in my garden it was at Hampton Court so I will decline your generous offer
That’s such a beautiful shot. I’ve never seen a snail with this coloured shell before.

Yvonne – NZ – I am afraid I squash snails in my garden!!They can be very beautiful with their markings. There is a very rear native one in NZ bush that is very beautiful and over 2″ across. Wow – sun out in London for the Olympics!!!
Pretty, but that wouldn’t save it in my garden. Christina
They are lovely but I don’t think I would like to see them in my garden
