  1. Good idea, recently moved, a big garden but needs to be maintained…confused where to start.
    Thanks for the suggestion, my kitchen window and kitchen door opens into one side of the garden, going to start from there.❤

  2. Hmmmmm…I never thought about it like that before. I look out onto a great big yard. I guess I have some planting to do.

  3. My living area an my bedroom looks out to my back garden 😂. Don’t worry I fill both gardens with the most beautiful flowers and shrubs . I absolutely love beautiful foliage on shrubs

  4. I brought plastic pots that hang over the fence , for that very reason , at the moment i have 5 brightly coloured primroses in them and i can see the foliage from a bamboo , opposite my kitchen window. Lovely ❤ it does lift you .

  5. I'm a professional gardener, I go to a new garden and the owner asks where do I start? Like you I always say start near the house at the bit you see most often and then work outwards. Don't try and do it all at once, gardening for you is meant to be fun and enjoyable, you're paying me to do the long hours of graft!
