My Garden in Nottingham

Just a little of my garden through the year. I have taken over 700 different flowers over the year in my garden.

Your garden
Your garden is just lovely. The type of garden I long to have but here in Australia (especially in the north), this in very difficult. Heat and drought are against it.

I hope you get your trip down the NSW coast. I cant wait to get back over to where you live. I just love the UK. What a beautiful place, so different to Australia.

Cheers Jody

Walking your garden from Wyoming USA
This is neat that I can look at your garden from thousands of miles away. Thank you for sharing your spectacular photographs with me. I thoroughly enjoyed them.
