Petit English Garden of MARPLE & POIROT

My wife and I started gardening in Fukuoka (Japan) in 2003. There was nothing but muddy clayey sloping land. At the beginning we made several structure such as steps and paths, and planted turf, fruit trees, roses, herbs etc. In 2010, we visited several famous English gardens, including Sissinghurst Castle Garden, Mottisfont Abbey Garden and Hidcote Manor Garden. We were shocked by the glory of those gardens. Since then, we have been trying to make small but glorious gardens by ourselves.

庭の紹介

　夫婦で庭づくりを福岡の郊外で2003年に始めました.　赤土むきだしの斜面にまず階段や園路をつくって芝をはり、果樹やバラ、ハーブなどを植えました.

　2010年にイギリスの有名なガーデンの、シシングハースト、モティスフォントアビー、ヒドコートマナーなどを回り、その素晴らしさに圧倒され、それから自分たちで小さくても素晴らしい庭をめざして庭づくりをつづけています.

PLANTING SEEDLINGS OF SPRING-FLOWERING PLANTS (春咲き植物の苗の植付け)

I recently planted some seedlings of spring blooming plants in the potager for April and May; Echium vulgare, asperula and corn poppy. First two were planted in the raised beds, and the last one was planted in the border and the dahlia bed. I can't wait for spring when the blue and red flowers bloom!

4月から5月の春咲き植物の苗をポタジェに最近植え付けました. エキウムブルガレ、アスペルラ、そしてヒナゲシです. 最初の二つはレイズドベッドに、最後のはボーダーとダリアの花壇に植えました. 青い花と赤い花が咲く季節が待ち遠しいです.
