An unfolding dahlia

We sold/gave away lots of tools and furniture when we moved out of our old home, and then subsequently the rental property. For some reason we included the hedge trimmer in that. Last weekend we realised (doh!) that we do have a short hedge and it will need regular cutting. So Barry has bought a new one - and the good news is that it is much lighter and smoother to operate than the old one. Today the hedge has been trimmed before the new drive is laid and top soil put on the small front garden.
Now for some garden planning.
