Granny's Garden

My mother's garden is beautiful at the moment - a true English garden, hidden from sight behind a village house. What a wonderfully relaxing (dry) place to start our holiday.

 The greatest gift of the garden is the restoration of the five senses.  ~Hanna Rion

than anywhere else on earth.

  1. Oh Harriet - what a sight for eyes that do secretly miss the quintessential English garden!! This is the most stunning garden - you, your mother and all the family must love it and certainly all the work that has made it such should be appreciated, as I'm sure it is. Enjoy!! Axxx
