Her driving is not adequately good...she prefers to do most things by force of muscle and mind.

Garden borders in the Scottish Borders no less!

Crathes Castle in Scotland has a very nice garden.

Was there some 10 years ago and despite being raining found it to be quite delightful.

This is the corner of the front garden here in the Scottish Borders near Kelso....about 3 weeks ago.

Beautiful Brian! My grass isn’t as good as that thanks to the dogs!

Our England Garden tour ended up yesterday, so now we are in London for a few days. One of the most interesting things I learned is how to add "companion plants" to rose beds. In particular, hardy low-growing geraniums etc which relieve the necessity of plucking weeds!
