Raising Their Canopies.

I spent some time yesterday raising the canopy of the trees down the back drive. This should enable me to maintain the ground beneath them more easily so therefore give a better overall appearance to the place which is particularly important as it's the first thing visitors see when they arrive.

I noticed on my travels that there are a few miniature Daffodils in flower on the banks by the front drive.

Little Clues

One of the things I like about working with an old garden are the little clues it throws up about what  went before. This tree is no longer here. I'm often finding these tags when working around the place.
