This year we are opening our garden five times, once each month from April to August so that visitors can see it develop as the year progresses. Our first opening was on 15th April, a sunny warm day so we were pretty busy. This blog is a wander around our Avocet garden with my camera just before our visitors arrived. Enjoy a wander with me.
Our next opening will be in May when the garden will look very different.

Each area looks wonderful. But, when I saw how many times you were going to have it open all I could think about was how much weeding were you going to have to do. 🙂 Have a great summer and I hope you have lots of guests who appreciate your hard work.
Divine. How have you been able to travel so much and still keep the garden in such pristine condition is a mystery.
