Well now, that’s a very good question. Well, it grows with a husband and wife gardening team coming over once a month. I love Frances and Tony. They keep me on track and do the ‘lawns’ – the rumbly grass patches we manage to keep alive with their help.
It also grows with me doing as little useful gardening as possible. I prefer to pull the odd weed and plant stuff with the kids than do the really hard yards (pun!), but I ADORE having a lovely garden to look at, potter through and just generally lay about in. A once a month gardener isn’t going to get me that, so I’ve come up with lots of useful ways to garden when you’re not really gardening.
Do you like the girls’ Smurf garden?
