Open garden in Brecon Beacons. What a lovely morning! Strawberries and Sheep’s Bums. Who is writing in the Visitors Book? July 1, 2015. Every time we open, and we’re on our 7th year for the NGS, we ask visitors to write a few thoughts in our visitors book. Invariably they are lovely comments, uplifting after all the hard work that goes into making the garden look presentable for all the hundreds of people who give up their time and money to come here. The writer was Sarah Price. Jul 05, 2015. Would like ...

Open garden in Brecon Beacons. 8230;and what they said. Our visitors liked…. July 21, 2015. Comments Off on our visitors liked…. Some pics of things of particular interest or curiosity. Ladybird poppy in cutting bed. 8230;with self-sown (a bit of a theme in our garden) candytuft and marjoram (the best pollinator-friendly plant you can have in your garden, in my opinion). Cornflower and ‘shaggy’ daisy again in the cutting bed. They liked the ground elder too – yes really. But that’s how I like it. Visitor...

Open garden in Brecon Beacons. November 6, 2015. How long does it take to remove and reassemble an 8′ x 6′ greenhouse? In theory it should take a day or two, but 11 days? Our good friends Teeny and Di offered us their old greenhouse which they never used as long as we took it down and removed it. That was the easy part and took about an afternoon. I ordered the glazing beads on Monday night and they should have been delivered on the Thursday, but dear old ParcelForce were at their worst and after three e...

Sue reckons the original photo at the top of our blog looked “too suburban” for our “wild garden”. Ian isn’t sure that people understand what Sue means by “wild garden” and that it might put people off coming. It’s down to you to decide! Here are the two pictures: old. 8230;and what they said.

I don’t always get round to taking photos of what I’ve made, and even when I do they don’t always get published in the blog. So here’s a short round up of some things I’ve made earlier in the year.

Open garden in Brecon Beacons. A good place for a G&T! July 25, 2016. I’ve just finished refurbishing two benches and a low table for a lady in Llangynidr. The metal work was badly flaking and some of the timbers were bent into boomerangs! After cleaning down the metal and repainting with Hammerite, I put new oak timbers on all three and joined them with new cross dowels to make a super strong finish. Al though I do say so myself they looked wonderful. April 7, 2016. Interesting angle to the back! After ...
