50 shades of green - well almost!

Continuing with the nature theme from yesterdays post, some more green stuff has been added along with a fence to my Last Great Project Layout. Now although not being a particular knowledgeable person on plants and shrubs, as I do tell Mrs. Woody when she puts gardening jobs on the chore list for me, I do know that they are generally not just green but actually they are in many shades of green - possibly fifty or more or maybe less but a lot of shades of green. Looking at a real country landscape you will see many shades of green and that is what I am trying to recreate on my layout at the moment. Whether that is successful is open to debate as with many of my projects but I am quite pleased with the way things are going at the moment. Maybe the photos illustrate that ?

That fence is some old Triang line-side fencing that is over 50 years old and going strong - unlike me! I painted it as it was moulded in white plastic and that was mentioned in the very first blog post I made back in 2020 - click here to see that post. As you can see there are various shades of green in the vegetation I am adding but I have added a slight amount of other colour in the form of red flowers...

and mauve blooms on the bush. Just something to make life a little less like 50 shades of green!
