GARDEN SCULPTURES AT GORDON RIGGS, WALSDEN, UK


The other day I visited Gordon Riggs garden centre in Walsden, near Todmorden, and they had some super sculptures there.  I'm not sure how weather-resistant they are for the garden, but I particularly loved the giraffes.  I'd love to find a place for those in my garden.  What fun!

Due to wind damage to my fencing, I have decided to replace fencing and replan my garden.  I'm not getting any younger, my balance problem isn't getting any easier, and I want a beautiful garden which is less labour intensive.  The biggest worry is the fencing.  Powerful winds in January this year (2017) took down three panels and snapped a 4x4in post, so I am delaying any gardening until refencing has been done.  Watch this space!

However, I did today buy a packet of sweet peas and a packet of Wisley Magic runner beans at the RHS garden shop in Harlow Carr.
