More garden

Took a new photo from the street today, since the only one we had was the agents', so five years old. I've recently tidied the flowerbed at the front and planted some hebes, lavender and a cordyline alongside the old rose. The rose is putting on a good show and I trimmed the hedge and cut the grass yesterday, as well as weeding the flowerbed (which had gone mad with weeds) so it looks presentable for once. Job for the weekend is buying bark chippings to reduce the weeds and also hold the moisture in the soil, it gets very warm out there as it gets full sun from noon onwards and our iron-rich bricks hold the heat as well. We've no tap at the front, so it doesn't get watered in dry weather like the back does.
