Visit to Russell and Susie's Garden

I am sure many of you will have visited Russell and Suzie's garden last week.  These photos are from Sarah and Mike and show the colourful garden full of variety, both plants and vegetables.   


I certainly had "bean" envy as I have failed again to produce decent beans but Russell and Suzie's beans were climbing  high up the poles and were already full of beans ready to eat with plenty more to come. 

As you can see from Sarah's photos, there is lots of colour, provided by a great variety of plants, clematis, dahlias, salvias and many many more. 








There was also a great display of lilies in pots, one of Russel's signature plants.   



Everything looked very healthy and well watered and Russell explained how he constructed an underground water tank to take all the rain water from the roofs which slightly surprisingly is still half full despite the lack of rain over the last few months, 

It is a lovely garden and one in which you can feel at home.  

Many thanks to Russell and Suzie for giving members the opportunity to visit the garden and provide further support  for AMR. 

Best wishes and thanks to Sarah & Mike for the photos,

Rosemary
