I remembered and found these garden ornaments from Beijing. I've put them tentatively in these positions, but they probably won't stay there.
I hope the house and garden do not look too 'miss-matchy', with heritage type latticey things going on, and then Asian-style bits in the garden. Oh well, they call it 'eclectic' don't they?
We so badly need a good rain - the ground is shrivelling and it's a struggle to keep the plants alive.
Something is missing from the top of these two - hope I find it, in some box or other still to be unwrapped.
And we finally had a big storm this evening, so here is the 'wet and glossy' shot!
