"The greatest gift of the garden is the restoration of the five senses." ~Hanna Rion
The Last post before the Computer gets unplugged. I will not be able to procrastinate and go on the internet for a while untill BT connects my broadband up.
I love these flowers from Harlow Carr.I hope the new garden will be full of healthy plants, singing birds, still waters, fruit tree's, and vegetables.
I want it to restore my senses and all the people who visit it, or see it vicariously on Snappys Gardens Blog. My winter project will be to reclaim the garden from the Brambles. Then to fill it with a myriad of plants, shrubs, and flowers.
I will miss my daily posting, as it is a cultivated habit now.I will have a weeks worth of New Garden news. Ideas for lots more blog posts, and questions to pose.
See you all in a weeks time!

Today is moving day to the new house. The photo was taken from the upstairs bedroom window on Monday. The wild garden is below.I have been packing my things ready to go tomorrow to the new house.
The phone line and internet will be moving, but there will a week with no blog :(
Once I'm online I can write about what I have done to the secret garden, buried beneath fire weed and brambles that have knocked the fence over!
Hope to be blogging my progress through the winter in the new garden. For me after a year with no garden its like Christmas come early.
Snappys garden blog will be live from my own garden. I have spring bulbs galore, seeds, and the fifty plants in the flat that need moving.
See you all in a week or so when im back online!

Oh happy days.I finally signed for the house today and took the keys. This is the first blogged photo of the garden. A teasing shot.
The internet needs moving on Wednesday so there will be a week or so with no blog :(
I took the first photos today on my mobile camera. I didnt think I would have the energy after the night shift.The excitement kept me awake for most of today.
What is this shrub? I wander if its a Skimmia.Its a big shrub..
The Snappy gardener now has a garden of sorts. Its like a secret garden as the weeds have overgrown it...
Im happy :) but tired. The last post untill the new internet will be tomorrow. I have a busy few days ahead with work, packing, and moving!
