Well, I didn't travel very far or wide to take this panorama - about 15 feet from home, in fact. While some people may see this as incredibly lazy (you'd be right) there was some reason behind this.

It struck me from reading the event brief that while an average English garden isn't very interesting to me, it may be to someone from the other side of the world.
Secondly, we have just finished creating the garden. When we moved into the house a year ago, it was fairly overgrown and not a place to relax or enjoy. We've built a patio, steps and fences, and planted a whole array of new plants from Britain and around the world. The final additions (for now) were made just before the WWP event - so it seemed like a good idea to document it.
