Nice photo's. Reminds me now spring is coming I have to get some new plants.

Nice diorama. Is that the one on the display board/setup?

I'm a bit concerned about those expencive looking power tools just lying there outside

It's the shop display stuff yes but with my existing stuff and extras added to make it more interesting. 
The power tools get locked away inside an night (both to stop them getting damaged and to stop them being stolen).

An excellent diorama, Verity.  I like the use of the stone paper for cobbles.

It's a complete base board seen in this thread here:

This looks great, verity! It's a really nice size garden center. I'm also curious about the soil in those flower beds... what is it exactly?

It's plastic.  This part:
30 25 2270 - Dirt for plant bed, with slits for sprouts

It's one mould with lines in it to look like it has been raked and 8 holes for putting in shoots or flowers.  The other type you could get was plasticine:
30 89 9712 - Clay for plant bed

which you could dig and rake with the tools yourself.

Great garden center! It's a good time of the year to start thinking about springtime and gardens.

Oh I see.... I had no idea that part existed! It looks very useful. The plasticine stuff might be a good feature for kids, but not all that long-lasting. Good to know they include an alternative for when it's gotten all full of dust and hair.

I also have some of these sets, still sitting in their boxes. This thread has certainly motivated me to get them open and set up. Thanks for the pics!!

Thanks for all the kind comments-I'm glad you liked it. 

It was really fun to do and I encourage you to rip open those boxes now that spring in nearing!
