I love the flowers in the last picture, their colors are so beautiful! It's a really gorgeous garden, it must be a real pleasure to take care of it,
I would love to see more pictures!

What an amazing project. It's so cool that you're a volunteer gardener. The statues look lovely, they'll probably look even better with a little age and weathering.
I had a look at your gorgeous photos on your blog. I've never seen apples that were just starting to grow. I've only seen apples that are fully formed.
They don't even look like apples when they're that tiny. Thank you for sharing your pictures.

Wow, that's a lot of different varieties of apple! You're going to be quite busy when it comes time to pick them. What happens to the apples? Do they get sold or made into anything?

Hello Solioquy nothing has happened in the past to the Apples but there is a new company in the Castle Kitchen who will be using the apples when they cook ,also we shall bag them up for sale .

Beautiful! I particularly like the flower bed full of blues and purples, it's my favourite colour combo for flowers. Those alliums look superb! I need to find somewhere in my garden to plant some...
