 Garden update. I don't think i have posted many pictures of how my garden has developed this summer , so here are a few pictures to show how much it has filled out . This is the 3rd year that i have been in my house and i only wish i took some pictures before i started work out the back . As i was writing this post i realised i have not took any recent pictures  i will update this thread tomorrow when i take some new up to date ones.  nick..

Re: Garden update. Nick it is really looking good, and having just looked at your location I'm astounded at what you are growing well. I knew you were up NorthEast, but was thinking coastal, however, you are actually about 50 miles inland  My garden doesn't look so different to yours in terms of what is growing

Re: Garden update. Nick,
Your garden looks really good. Very lush and jungly.
Is your garden fairly sheltered? Some of those big leaves are in excellent condition (your Pawlonia looks a 1000 times better than mine).

Re: Garden update. Great plants there Nick. You must be sheltered since the big leaves are not shredded like mine  and for the lush growth you must have a fantastic micro-climate
