(FI) Hei pitkästä aikaa! Blogi on taas ollut hunningolla, mutta tämä kuvasarja kertoo hyvin, mihin kaikki mahdollinen aika on viime kuukausina mennyt. Ihanan lämpimät kesäsäät sallivat meidän tehdä puutarhan jo pitkälti valmiiksi ennen muuttoa, joten ensi kesänä kitketään lähinnä vain rikkaruohoja (niitä kyllä riittää, kun piha on ollut vuosia hoitamatta!) ja nautitaan lämpimästä eteläpihasta. Palaan toivottavasti pian myös remonttikuulumisten kera, nyt työmaalla tapahtuu todella paljon yhtaikaa ja alkaa olla myös muuta näytettävää kuin asennettuja putkia ja sähköjohtoja. Hyvää viikonloppua!
(IT) Ciao dopo tanto tempo! Ho trascurato il blog per un bel po' ma queste foto vi spiegheranno, dove abbiamo passato tutto il tempo possibile negli ultimi mesi. Grazie all'estate calda e piena di sole abbiamo potuto praticamente finire di sistemare il giardino della casa nuova prima del trasloco quindi la prossima estate dovremo solo tenere sotto controllo l'erbaccia (ce n'è tantissima, conseguenza del fatto che il giardino è stato lasciato senza cura per parecchi anni.) e goderci il giardino che si affaccia verso sud. Cercherò di tornare presto anche con le notizie sullo stato della ristrutturazione. In questo momento i lavori stanno andando avanti velocissimo e ci sono anche altre cose da mostrare oltre ai tubi e cavi elettrici nuovi. Buon fine settimana!
(EN) Hi, it's been a while! I haven't been able to dedicate any time to the blog lately but these pictures show you what we have been doing during the last months. Thanks to the wonderfully sunny and warm summer we have been able to practically finish the garden projects before moving in, so next year we will just have to root up weed (there's so much of it after years of neglecting the garden!) and enjoy the south-facing garden. I will try to come back soon to tell you about the renovation as well. Things are moving forward really fast at the moment so there are finally other things to show you besides new plumbing and electric wiring. Have a nice weekend!
This is what we had in April |
First weeks we were just desperately clearing the space. |
We waited for the rhododendrons to bloom before moving them to the side. Soon also the old roses started blooming. |
White and blue flowers are my favourites. I painted the stair railing black. |
Planning the edging and paving... |
The garden starts to find the right shape and the first planter box is ready. |
After installing the paving we started to build the terrace deck. |
Garden furniture moved in as soon as the deck was ready. |
Finally everything starts to be done! We need to do something to the old lawn next summer, though... |
Wow, nice! Lots of work! :)
