When we moved into our house about 15 months ago, the garden was an overgrown shambles. Our Indian gardener, Joy, has worked wonders in the intervening months, pruning, seeding and planting and we now have a lush lawn for the kids to play on and plants galore for me to enjoy.
The frangipani trees and bougainvillea are in blossom at the moment and in the evenings, the scent of the jasmine fills the air. It's hard to believe sometimes that we live on a desert island.
Such an exotic look in your garden. That could never be England, could it! That lawn is so lush!
ReplyDeleteOh Frangipani, my absolute favourite flower - or is it a tree? Perfect for popping in your hair (the flower not the tree). Thanks for visiting me!
ReplyDeleteWow, your garden looks gorgeous. I love the smell of jasmine on warm evenings.
ReplyDeleteIt's really lovely. Verdant. I love your gates and the frangipani reminds me of Australia. I would enjoy sitting out in that garden!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Looks more like one of the British Colonial houses in Singapore or Indonesia. What part of Bahrain is your house in?
ReplyDeleteTrish/Kate/Victoria/Selma - thanks for the comments. The garden is getting better and better. Only problem is it's now 45 degrees and too hot to be in it!
ReplyDeleteMiss Becky - we live in Adliya. Very central yet still green.
