It looks absolutely fab, DD, much more interesting having curves than straight lines 👍🏼 I'm glad you've saved the hibiscus - looks like Bluebird. Mine have died this year 🥲
There was too much over grown bush that was the problem, you could have put the pergola in place and you wouldn't have seen it! My neighbour said where did all this garden come from

Yes it's a Bluebird and the flowers this year have been amazing after it was unearthed from all the shrubbery we discovered it was growing sideways because the Eleagnus was pushing it over. I thought it'd be able to stay where it was until the garden was cleared and I saw it was actually right in front of the pergola. Apparently they transplant OK but this was a mature shrub that was in full flower, the guys cut it back by 1/3rd and were able to replant it with the root ball crooked so it now stands up straight, it's looking OK so I have my fingers crossed it survives

It wasn't too bad before Diamond Diva , but now it's fabulous.
I don't think anything had been pruned for years before I bought the bungalow, consequently everything was absolutely massive and totally out of hand. I nearly didn't buy it because I thought the garden was too small then I ventured to the back if the flowerbeds and I found the rest of the garden! Two years ago I made a start on the cutting back but then I broke my ankle, COVID hit and family berevements took over and it all grew back and looked like I'd never touched it, I realised I couldn't do it alone so decided to have it done professionally. I had to wait six months before the guys could fit me in as lockdown made everyone want to extend their living space into the garden!

I had hoped to have it up and running for the summer but it wasn't to be, but with the heatwave we've had it would have been a nightmare trying to keep everything alive so all in all I glad it wasn't done earlier
Now I've got the fun bit, buying and placing all the plants but I'll wait until the greenhouse has been fitted which should be either next week or the week after

How many marijuana plants do you reckon you can fit in the new greenhouse Diamond Diva ?
The nice man (Steve) is coming at 4 today to remove the bath. Himself advertised it in several places and we've had a lot of response. My favourite text was -
