I live in Apeldoorn (Netherlands). My garden is over 30 ft wide and 60 ft deep wich is large for city standards but way too small for my addiction.
You see, I'm more a collector then a gardener so my garden is really "bulging" with species of plants. Maybe not ideal from a garden designer's point of view but I start to love it more and more.
My main interest is Trees, Angiospermae as well as Gymnospermae. But I also love shrubs, perennials and annuals.
In one or more decades my garden will probably be like a mini forest, because I cannot resist planting trees, eight already on such a small area!
Cladrastis lutea 'Rosea', Pinus ponderosa (yes, becomes large!), Fraxinus ornus, Liriodendron tulipifera 'Fastigiata', Alnus incana 'Aurea', Stewartia pseudocamillia (slooow growing), Halesia monticola 'Rosea'
and Ulmus parvifolia. Like I said, it is an addiction.
Still looking for a Pinus bungeana by the way..

I live in: Netherlands

My zone is: z7 Neth
