I'm so excited to follow the progress of your home transformation! It looks like you are living the good life, there in the English countryside. It's where I want to visit, more than anywhere else in the world. Your garden is so lovely, and what a view down your lane! Swallows! So lucky!
Ok, is ANY of this that I'm seeing in these pictures what you folk over the pond call "heather?" I read about heather in my novels all the time and am just not sure what to picture in my head - - -
No, sorry to disappoint you but this is not heather. Heather tends to grow on hillsides so you see a lot of it in Wales and Scotland and when it is in flower it makes the hills look purple! The area I live in has a lot of arable land and pasture so it is mainly grass and crops in these pictures.
