I don't have a clue what I'm doing, but I bought a house from someone who obviously loved the garden. Any advice / tips / help gratefully received :)

If you love honeysuckle, then you must love another variety called Dropmore scarlet with red blossom.

Thanks @dadagbon - a honeysuckle with red blossom must look fabulous when it's in bloom! I'll have to try and find one 😊

Thanks @dadagbon 😊 I have been trying to tidy it up before taking a pic. Lots of weeding to do but I'm about half way there now. I just hope I don't pull up any plants by mistake!! 😉

@benjitzers, You are doing my favourite aspect of gardening. Surely the result will justify your humble effort. When you have had enough, just call on me if you are not miles away from London.

Thank you @dadagbon - I'll give it my best shot and hopefully the plants will be happy. Unfortunately Devon is a fair few miles away from London so I reckon I'll need to crack on with the weeding myself 😜

@dadagbon I'm not sure which honeysuckle this one is, but there are a few buds on it now, so I'll take a close up when they open 😁

@dadagbon - is that what they say?! Good job they didn't base that on my experience/knowledge 😝

@benjitzers I always say that gardening is all about self expression. Just do it your way. Everything i know about gardening is self thought from my love of nature and the entire ecosystem of which we are all part of. Please enjoy your space, you are so lucky...

@dadagbon that sounds good to me 😀 I'm happy to learn as I go and I'm already enjoying watching the transformation.... It's getting quite addictive!!
