Inspiring others

Ithought this picture of our small garden that my wife and I enjoy so much while we’re locked down may help others in a similar position look to their own gardens. Most of the flowers and various lavenders have been grown using knowledge and experiences plucked from the pages of the Garden News, which I have subscribed to for many years.

We enjoy the arrival of the bees each summer, and all our bird visitors, including Ted the pigeon, and the many bossy hen sparrows investigating everything.

I would like to say thanks for your excellent magazine, which is passed around my family's increasing numbers to also enjoy.
