Path through azaleas

I re-cut a path through the Rhododendron luteum (azalea) bushes on the front bank this morning; it saves a lot of scrambling up or down and around the bushes. Now I can walk right across the front bank at the same height. I cut back a bit of that old plum tree at the end of the path too, to give more light to the Everlasting Sweetpeas that grow under it.

The easiest way round to the front bank is via the "north-west passage" to the birch tree and turn right. I have to watch my step to avoid the Tormentil and Devil's-bit Scabious plants that grown under the birch, then step up to the azalea level by the birch root steps.

I am surprisingly un-midged!
