lovely sr :-)
you know I love your gorgeous acers so good to see it all in more detail

It makes me want more colour on my garden, Ive been concentrating so much on the evergreens in the last couple of years that theres been no change to herald spring this time apart from my acers leafing up
:-(

anyway,as my garden is all patioed (sp?) mr peapod has promised me he'll build me another raised bed for some purty flowers :-)

I think that bush may be a ceanothus (californian lilac)?

No, no dog :cry:  - to explain my OH is allergic to animals... I would dearly love a pooch, but alas it's not meant to be.
