It looks more like a garden belonging to a stately Home!

Who looks after it for you & keeps it so immaculate?
Gosh! Carol. This was unexpected! Thank You to everyone for your lovely comments.
Firstly, it’s not an Estate and l am no Lady of the Manor!
It’s a normal house that just happens to be set in one acre of land.
I tend to it all on my own but my current boyfriend has seen it as a project and has cleared a large area (not pictured) of nettles and weeds. He has also tidied up my drive that was full of weeds.
My garden, although large is quite easy to manage. As long as the lawns are cut, it looks fine.
Most of the shrubs l have grown are from cuttings. Or plants that l buy in the reduced area at garden centres!
I put them in my greenhouse ‘hospital’ and nurture them back to health. I can’t bear to see a dying plant.
On the day l took the pics, l had just mowed the lawns, the weather was beautiful, the skies were blue and that made the pics look better!
You are all welcome to visit, if ever you are in my area.
