Sad they tore "yours" down.<br /><br />Peter: almost broke a heel! ;)<br /><br />Denise: if only I had more flat areas...

Beautiful garden with some very nice plant combinations but you're right, those uneven flagstones aren't the best for walking on when wearing high heels.

Sadly it was torn down and the lot is still empty.danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.com
