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.

SNOWFLAKE FLOWERS IN SPRING GARDEN (春の庭のスノーフレーク)

Snowflake is one of the most typical spring-flowering bulb plants. Its very pretty little flowers are very popular. It is almost disease and pest-free and easy to grow both in the ground and in pots. It bloomed beautifully this year, a little later than usual.

スノーフレークは春咲きの代表的な球根植物の一つです。とても可愛らしい小花は人気があります。病害虫もほとんどなくて、地植えでも鉢植えでも育てやすい花です。例年より少し遅れて今年もきれいに咲きました。
