We moved in 1 month ago. I feel like we have the house under control. I know what I'm doing when it comes to inside spaces!
Neither I nor DH have ever had a garden, apart from when we were growing up. I also manage to kill houseplants in a shockingly short space of time.
Long-term plan involves a bit of landscaping but no money for that at the moment. We would like the garden to look a little nicer than it does at the moment though. I'm not sure if the plants that are already there are dead or or not. There seem to be a few roses and I guess those just aren't flowering at this time of year??
I'd like to fill out the beds that are running down the sides of the lawn so that there's more foliage than mud on view but have no idea what would work well planted closely together or not. No idea what type of soil it is - quite a dark brown but a fair few stones visible.
Aspect is north west. Left hand bed gets sunshine during the day from about halfway up, but the rest is in shade.
That ended up quite long. Sorry.
