My picture of the day-Where's yours?

Surrey

I only know the Mole valley and Box Hill, Ralph Halperns old house overlooks my mates workshop in the valley, every man and his dog seems to be involved in landscape gardening for the truly wealthy. The view in your picture is very easy on the eye.

It's beautiful - where is it ?

I did a little circular ride yesterday & was able to stop and admire this view from Rudgeway on the A38, over towards the Prince of Wales Bridge.

Your place is in the twilight zone otherwise known as "orange zone", if I understand the statement made last week it means review before 11th of May. I assume you have someone to cut your grass there

Yes, I'm guessing its proximity to Italy didn't help, and the heaving masse of Valence (not to mention the local three-kisses-norm for friends).

My garden grass seems to be self-composting if I don't get around to scything it. I'm more upset about my plum, greengage and cherry trees doing their stuff without me...

Anyway, more importantly, the air was crystal clear this afternoon, and I could almost see all the way to France from Devon (if the world weren't round):

That central vertical branch should be snipped in autumn or early next year for an open centre, my opinion and two p's worth. While I'm telling other people how to suck eggs dig a 1M circle 10cm deep around it and mulch with whatever good stuff you have. I managed to rescue three very sad cherry trees via a severe pruning and creating mulching pits around them.
I lost most of my cherry crop two weeks ago after severe storms destroyed the flowers while they where still being pollinated, some you win...
I see a contented looking dog in the background.

Ah, thanks... this photo was 2017... and that's what I've been doing with pruning since, in late summer, to try to avoid fungal infection. Mulching pits a good idea! Late frosts can be a problem - a couple of years ago, one in early May pretty much wiped out the grape and walnut crop of the region.
