We decided a trip out of the house today would be good, so we took a walk down the road to the lovely Walled Gardens of Cannington. It is fantastic to have such an attraction 20 minutes walk from our house! Great for some inspiration for the garden too. The students from Bridgwater College have a series of show gardens that they have designed. We really liked the look of this one:
The use of reclaimed wood is great and very pleasing on the eye. This is definitely the kind of look I think we will be going for once we tackle the garden. Really liked this insect house too - great use of old pallets:
The planting scheme here is interesting, very Mediterranean looking:
And who knew Eucalyptus could grow in the UK?! We bought ourselves a small plant so we'll see how it takes...
There was a lovely greenhouse in the gardens too:
Check out the size of the lemons!!!
Healthy looking cacti too:
Even though the gardens weren't at their most floral it was still great to go - we'll be back to check on progress as the year carries on. It is only down the road after all....
