Time to hit the Garden..
 
Well As most of you know I moved into another house in November, Well Most things are done now, So its time to hit the garden :eek:

Well I have been messing with the type of basic thing me and the misses want, And here is a before and A Hope for result.

I think I have my work cut out, We aint buying Turf, I have started digging the garden so the turf will be grown from seed from scratch, I Am going to regret this I know I am, I havent really got green fingers though I will be making the fences.

Anyway these are what we hope for...lol Maybe a few weeks down the line Ill post new pics to see how far I have got..lol

Well Trees are Here, Privot Hedges will be here within 7 weeks, Fruit Bushes are Here, Grass Seed is here, Mixed Plants are here...lol All it needs is for me to go out finish Digging and sow the seeds.

The Fence I will Prefure to make myself, Its a lot stronger when I make it to the Shops, But I maybe having a recycled one from a Park As my Father in law works at them and he has to replace or dismantle it.

Its not so much a lot of work, Its waiting the Ten Years for the Trees to grow will be the problem... :lol:

You should have seen it when we moved in in november, It was really bad....lol The before pic I had to get loads of rubbish ect out of there too.

But its a lot easier doing this garden to the one I had before, The one before was 77 foot long and took ages to cut the grass...lol But this one is a lot smaller and hopefully when I have finished a lot easier to manage... :)
