I like your upbeat, chatty (and humorous) style :-)

I love an overgrown cottage-y English garden.
Love that storybook look but I do enjoy neatness in my garden so I'm sure to prune, deadhead and replant areas I find too wild, boring or not doing so well.
I have a shade garden with zen elements as well as that Cottage storybook look- the key has been potting things that go wild and giving away plants that don't work in my space.
I'm currently tackling the from garden of my home-
I have hazel nut, pomegranate, camellia and hibiscus Trees, one nasty (renter) neighbor and too many irises that never get enough sun to bloom.
As an admired gardener- I've been so busy with my
Mini masterpiece in the back of the house- I've all but neglected the from of my home.
I got rid of a dead, poor, sad dogwood tree and removed several heirloom crinum lilies which I potted.
Needless to say, I've got tons of work to do in front of my home to meet my gardening standards and desires!
