After several wet summers, our garden had become neglected and overgrown.
We (I'm using the royal we here, as it's really he) are working hard to bring it back into shape.
Some tough love is needed and hard decisions made.
The Buddleia, sadly, had to get the chop although it never attracted as many butterflies as I would have liked.
And as I'm really just an armchair gardener at heart, I bought a new bench from which to enjoy the transformed garden.
