May I ask you about how your garden is planned?

Did you have any particular design or style in mind when starting your garden or did you just figure it out as you went? I don't have a lot of space but still want to plan something nice and not just flowers here and there, but I truly have no idea where to start.

I'd planned to have a small wild garden at the front in an awkward little border. There were already self-set cornflowers, aquilegia, oxalis and coltsfoot in there, along with a few others which needed removing eg groundsel.

DH told me he'd weeded 'that mess at the front' this afternoon. All gone. 🤔

Brings a whole new slant on "Whoops - butterfingers....".

That's him in the "Dunce Corner" at the moment and not going to get his favourite dinner etc for a while.

I'd be most annoyed at the lack of consultation/discussion with me on that. Sounds like it's up to him to pay for packets of wildflower seeds to replace it...

My first words would be "It's my garden too......."

I'm sure I told him whst I'd planned but perhaps he didn't have his hearing aid in!

Never mind, what's done is done and no doubt they'll grow again.
