I found my way over here today and felt like it was time for another comment. I truly love your garden Jon. To me it is all a garden should be.

Jon’s garden photo of the excavation reiterates to me that alkaline gardens can really grow beautiful roses.

Yes, 'gardening on chalk' is often written about in English books and I hoped that photo would explain what it means. There is a garden a few miles down the valley called Mottisfont that does it much better.

Well, that's so nice to hear in this cold and wet Spring! May have to add a few more pictures in that case!

This is probably the most beautiful member garden on HMF.
