My secret garden
 |
Parts are wild and wooded |
 |
There are some interesting graves |
 |
Wild flowers and garden plants seed themselves around |
 |
| Insect life thrives. The poached egg plant brings hoverflies which eat all the greenfly. |
 |
| The fisherman fishes |
 |
No weeding needed here. All perennial weeds were eliminated before my garden plants were allowed to go wild. |
 |
The views were once of pit heaps and the cemetery was a sea of nettles and brambles |
 |
| Still an active cemetery, it is a quarter of a mile up the road from the church |
 |
“It looks rather wild”. I sometimes have to work out whether this is meant as a compliment or an insult!
|
 |
| I am always uplifted when I make my monthly maintenance visit |
It looks lovely just a little piece of heaven on earth.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sue.
DeleteThis cemetry looks so beautiful and pieceful and you do the maintenance, great! In our country and most other countries in Europe, cemeteries are rather scaring, except in England. Especially your old wild graveyards are so,lovely.
ReplyDeleteNot only the maintenance ,Janneke I introduced the plants and got rid of the brambles and nettles! I was originally sponsored by an old school friend who knew of Bolton Percy churchyard garden.
DeleteA very beautiful and tranquil resting place.
