Fig Tree - Whitecroft855 mol gekuckt ginnWe have what the gardeners call a "micro climate" at Whitecroft. It's near the boiler, and just beneath the exhaust fan from the kitchen. The fig tree loves it. Okay, it's not the sunshine of Turkey or Greece, but you take what warmth you can get here in sunny Worcestershire.

Whitecroft Garden Fountain514 mol gekuckt ginnVic, Andy, and crew just installed a new pump, filter system, and and some underwater lights. The water is much cleaner, and there's no blanket weed (yet). I love the sound of the water in the metal trays of the fountain -- a bit like a wind chime.
