I’m smirking here, Christopher. I might have been more diplomatic if I had believed for one minute that garden no.2 was your own design. The person who created your fabulous wild garden couldn’t have come up with the bland, pseudo Victorian pastiche ...... could they ?? (Although the final picture redeems it a bit. Except the white arch.)

p.s. in my world a garden doesn’t start looking good until the plants are all touching and no mulch is showing.😉
