Growing in your front garden

Thank you Snows! We love that Wistaria, although when it sheds its blossom, we get it all over the house and Mrs Growster is on the warpath most days... The leaves in Autumn are a menace as well, for the same reason!

It used to go round three sides of the house, and took absolute ages to tame, and as ladders are not my favourite items, we decided to cut it right back to this shape, which I can now prune from the ground!

There's a photo taken of it when it was rampant and barging around everywhere in the late nineteenth century, and they must have designed the 'modern' house around it!

I love it its beautiful, I hope you dont mind but i am using it as my screen picture

Thank you, BQ, of course you can use it, and here's another one with a rampant Photinia, and the remains of a Magnolia, plus a few bluebells...

Balders, my boots never did fit my silly-shaped feet, so nothing to see there..;0)

I have 3 patches at home two of which are in the front garden. Luckily its very private and cannot be seen from the road. The only people who know there is food there are our neighbors, and I don't think they dare nick any Ha Ha! Both front patches are part of my rotation, and I couldn't do without them. If you can avoid theft then the front garden is the perfect place to grow imo.
