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.
Hardenbergia is a vine that begins to bloom in February. The pink and purple varieties are growing on either side of the arbor seat on the east side of the garden. Small flowers bloom in clusters, and upon closer inspection, one can see that they are legumes. When these flowers are over, spring will be in full swing in the garden.
On the right side of the arbor seat is a variety with pink flowers.

And on the left side of the arbor seat is a variety with purple flowers.

The plants in the flowerbed are Echium candicans on the left, Agapanthus on the right, and the white flowers in the urns (cup-shaped pots) are Super Alyssum.
