A bit of planting!

So, in a mad moment this afternoon we decided to plant up the bed by the entrance. At the top is a photo before Paul built the retaining walls to give you a 'before and after'. Since then we've planted three ornamental cherries and today I finally got some other plants in! We've had to put up a goose barrier until the lavender hedge gets established! Some stock I've grown from seed (Euphorbia, Salvia and Achillea) and some were brought from our garden in Pirbright (Festuca and Paeony). Mike bought us some lovely white agapanthus and I've transplanted some blue Iris- so not a bad result really!! Just in time for wine o'clock!
