Two Echo readers have shared images of their very different lockdown gardens.
Donna Millman in Boscombe East has extended her social living space outdoors with stunning results. She even has her own bar!
She told us:"We spent our lockdown doing the garden up and used the money we would have spent on holidays on new decking which has made a huge difference.
"We used Cuprinol muted clay to paint the decking, fencing and summer house/bar - which are all new. A friend built the bar for us and made the bench seating too. It's certainly extended our living space as this area used to have a trampoline and huge bush there!"
Heather Potts in Corfe Mullen sent us lovely pictures of the plants in her garden and said:
"We absolutely adore the garden, especially as it is getting warmer. Everything is starting to take on a new look after the Winter."
Maybe it's window boxes, a veg plot or an allotment, if you're proud of your garden share it with us here or email pictures and some details to hilary.porter@newsquest.co.uk
Show off your glorious Dorset garden
We'd love you to send up photographs of your garden - anything from a window box to an allotment, telling us who you are and what area/town you live in for our 'Over the Garden Fence' feature.
