Janine's Garden in Jersey

A few pics of my garden. It is a nice plot, but has the house in the middle, so I have thin strips of garden all they way around. It does mean that I have cool shade in the north and warm sunny spots too, just none of it very wide. I will add more in the spring, and some general shots of Jersey too if you like.
