I'm going to make a bigger pond, so started to make some space (removed the little paving slab wall and some stuff), next up ; digging up the plants, then emptying the pond and bog thingy, dig those out and start creating a bigger more natural pond for wildlife. Large project so will do a bit every day.. (last slide is the 'before' setting)

Sometimes the most beautiful things are also the most useful.

This flowering espalier—the Clematis—bursts into bloom early in spring, covering walls with delicate white flowers and a wonderfully sweet scent. Even in winter it holds on to its green presence, quietly preparing for the next season.

But it’s more than just beautiful. Plants like these play an important role in supporting life around us. Bees, bumblebees, and butterflies are drawn to the flowers, turning a simple wall into a small but thriving ecosystem. And when grown against a house, they can even help regulate temperature, reducing direct sunlight in summer and buffering cold winds in winter.

A natural layer between us and the elements.
