Late November Garden

Thank you for all the lovely comments and best wishes for my last post
I really want to get on with all my Summer postings but first
I think it worth a look at the garden today


Looking out from the kitchen


and from upstairs






and my new roses still in flower
I have on order 4 of these bushes to replace my Lavender bed
and a climbing one for behind to give a big splash of this

Back to Summer in my upcoming posts

Your kitchen view is beautiful - looks like it would make doing the dishes fun. We haven't had a killing frost yet, so my roses are blooming - a good thing, since they didn't bloom much during the summer. I'm looking forward to seeing your summer pictures.

Your garden is just beautiful!
Love the rose too.
You must totally enjoy sitting in that chair and just soaking it all in. :-)
Have a nice weekend!

Your garden still looks very lovely. Most everything is bare looking in ours, but there still remain a few roses on the bush and that does help to brighten things up. It will bloom till it's frozen out...which may be very soon it is very cold here today. Hope your Thursday is a wonderful one!

What a gorgeous lot of color you are enjoying. The bush with all the varying foliage is scrumptious. And the roses still blooming are amazing!

Whenever I am in England, I marvel at the gardens. My in-laws laugh at me taking photos of their back garden, but it is beautiful, just like yours! You may have the Eiffel Tower, lovely as it is, I will take an English garden, any day!

Love the view from your window and the color in your garden. Is the white a hydrangea? The rose is so beautiful ~

Such a great way to start any day to the view of a beautiful garden out the window.

Hello Barbara

Lovley view of Autumn colors.

The colors have been unreal in the area where I live, but now all the trees are becoming empty.

Take Care

Best
Tracy :)

Hey Barbara!
If you get a chance, look at my post "England At Her Best!". I think your post was a bit of an inspiration to me... look and you will see why!

Ahhhh. More DA roses. Love all their pink roses -- can never get enough. Hope they do well for you in their new homes. I'm not sure what that orangey and dark rounded leaf tree (shrub?) is, but I love the colour change in them.

Dear Barbara, reading this blog about your English garden has definitely persuaded me to choose an English style. Recently, I was up to find the right way of changing the look for my flowerbeds, however I was still hesitating between various garden designs. Thank you and good luck :)
