BCF Garden Competition.

[Ariel Badger]

Following on from carlosthejack...'s thread I propose a garden competition. This is how it will work, for a week we post photos of our gardens here (a maximum of 10 I think) then I will start a new thread with a poll in it of the entrants names so we can vote for our winner.

Some lovely features in there mate, like it.

Mine is very much work in progress, think I'm going to have to re-grass the lot as its not looking too clever! I'll try and post up a pic later of how it is now......

Yep, Ariel, that's right up my street as gardens go, you don't need a massive lawn and garden to have a pleasant place to sit and look after. I am strictly speaking, a gardener, and that's what I really like, nice use of limited space.

I have got a sandstone wall in my yard which I had planned to repoint this weekend but I took a few stones out to clean up a bit and half the wall fell over = Rockery in progress. It's a demolition site at the minute but I'm planning herbs, alpines and conifers, shouldn't take too long, so I hope to post pics up here in a few weeks.

Harold_Shand's theory might be the best explanation.

[KevTM]

Is there some sort of symbolism or metaphor to the self-portrait water fountain toad thing? Please explain... it's a cool idea.

[.....]

Ariel once licked a toad for its hallucinogenic effects and was promptly sick?

[Ariel Badger]

Thanks for the compliments . It is a small garden and a lawn would be a waste of it, rather I have broken it into small areas on different levels and this gives the impression of space.
I think we run this thread up to December and do the judging over the holiday to give those of you with WIP to get a look in.
There is no symbolism with the face/frog thing but I did take the pattern for the casting direct from my face.

doubt my garden is eligible
its indoors, doesn't use soil and is full of "Weeds"

my back garden in the Uk consists of 12m x 12m of concrete slab's
only grass there is what grows between the slabs
and the occasional weed (no not this time) along the boarder fence

out the front I have 10m x 10m of grass which I don't cut as its open gardens the council do that

That's a proper "Gardeney" Garden you've got there Ariel. Really nice!


Here's my garden, Excuse the big crosses, we're having a Vickers and Tarts garden party at the weekend.
Still got a gazebo, beer tent, and loads of lights to put up yet.

[Ariel Badger]

Enter anything you want but if you take pictures on a iphone it will give your garden location A balcony can be a good garden, size is not important.
We need some female input as well, girls are good gardeners.

Nice Binge, I thought the KKK had planted them on your lawn! Your palms did well to survive last winter, I guess it is a little warmer down south.

Why couldn't you have done this 6 years ago? My old gardne was lovely. My new one has loads that needs doing.

That reminds me...I need to order 8 tonne of top soil.

I planted-up my garden around my bike.
Foreground are pansies and marigolds grown by my own fair hands.

White and yellow Jasmin..Honeysuckle(3rd generation heirloom)

Behind the rear BT45 (36psi) is my blackcurrant bush.

Directly behind the left megaphone exhaust some will of spotted a young Buddleja.

The spoked front wheel with alloy rim (18") is disguising a wee-burn on the Rye-grass lawn.

Lovely garden there Ariel.

I love to see a nice garden, not done much with mine this year apart from keeping it tidy. Managed to get so lily of the valley to take though .

[Nexus Icon]

[oldpink]

to be honest I'd love a big garden with shrub's & plants maybe even a small veg plot
unfortunately I only have 12m x 12m, I have a large dog that destroyed my garden in a couple of months
either by digging holes (bottomless pits) for her bones or pissing on the grass and killing the rest off

on top of that bikes get jet washed, serviced and general maintenance
so having it all slabbed means its easy to burn off oil spills etc
