This was the first year of the development of our more formal gardens, the lawns to each side of the house and the vegetable and fruit gardens. this is how the development went and how far we got…
We laid lawn on the Western end of the house
We planted lots of lavendar as we love it!
Wild strawberries in the shelter of the wall…
…which grew quickly
The lawn is known as Lisa and Nigel’s campsite!
We also laid a little lawn on the Eastern side of the house
Peter dug over a large tranche of garden on our first terrace
We started a little late that year, but steadily
Peter was in his element
And we began to plant veggies
Our first artichokes…
Beautiful!
We planted soft fruit – rhubarb, raspberries blackcurrant
