One of the borders in our garden.
I thought I would sprinkle in a few photos of the garden whilst waiting for the guests to arrive and the party to begin.
When we moved here 11 years ago there were no flowers or shrubs, just over half an acre of paddock grass with a few established trees, some alder on the river bank, couple of ash, couple very old apple trees, and a couple of nut trees. My wife has since planted nigh 50 trees at a guess, cherries, fruit, birches, maple and other ornamentals, not to mention countless shrubs and plants. The garden is on two levels, the upper being 10' or 12' higher than the lower. The higher my wife has laid out more formally whilst the lower half, next to the river, she has created in a more casual cottage style with a little woodland area also. You can look down on the lower area from the upper quite clearly. All thought, design, graft, planting and arrangement is entirely my wife's work, initially with her assistant Freddie, now little Hugo.
This border is on the lower part leading to the little woodland
area.
The Worm (German: Wurm) is a small river or creek at the border between Germany and the Netherlands. This shot is a long exposure of 50" and was taken from the Dutch side.

Zum Bild der Schafherde in der Landschaft gehören die Hütehunde, treue Helfer des Schäfers, ohne deren unermüdliche Arbeit in vielen Fällen die Haltung der Schafe nicht möglich wäre.
This picture is taken in the Netherlands, but this fence is in Germany. The stones are the border between them.
Trying to disguise the fact it's a bit of rubbish photo with a big border 😅 Yep, still can't do woodland photography, but it's Treesday and a BH week! Happy short week workers of the world. Well, UK.
The daily border patrol is an important task and it's something Tofu and Filou often do together. While Tofu checks what's going on in the neighbouring gardens, Filou's job is to cover his back.
Gracias a todos por vuestra visita, amables comentarios y fav/ Thank you all for your visit, kind comments and fav.
Border collie puppies for sale at an agricultural show in western Ireland. Momma was on hand to demonstrate her herding skills.... with ducks. I guess if you can herd a duck, you can herd a sheep....?
At Pashley Manor Gardens you will discover 11 acres of beautiful borders and vistas – the culmination of a lifetime of passion for gardening, an appetite for beauty and an admiration of the tradition of the English Country garden. These graceful gardens, on the border of Sussex and Kent, are family owned and maintained – visitors often express delight at the attention to detail displayed throughout and the intimate, peaceful atmosphere.
All the ingredients of the English Country Garden are present – sweeping herbaceous borders, ha-ha, well maintained lawns, box hedges, espaliered rose walk, historic walled garden, inspiring kitchen garden, venerable trees and the Grade I listed house as a backdrop. The gardens are a haven for wildlife – bees, butterflies and small birds as well as moor hens, ducks and a black swan. Then, of course, the plants! Borders overflowing with perennials and annuals – the look changing through the seasons, but always abundantly filled, and each garden ‘room’ planted in a different colour theme.
Pashley is also renowned for fantastic displays of tulips, roses and dahlias. Our annual Tulip Festival features more than 48,000 tulips this year! During Special Rose Week over a hundred varieties of rose swathe the walls, climb obelisks and bloom in flower beds. Then in late summer our Dahlia Days event transforms the gardens once more with bountiful, brightly coloured dahlias in every border and pot.
Add to all this a Café and Terrace with excellent garden views, serving delicious homemade lunches, scones and cakes; Sculpture and Art Exhibitions; a Gift Shop with Plant Sales; and a friendly, knowledgeable team waiting to welcome you, and the recipe for a wonderful day out is complete.
