Another day, another collection of beautiful gardens from our readers across Suffolk and Essex.
Gardeners in our region are proving they are not just blessed with green thumbs but also an eye for landscaping, incorporating different elements into their green spaces to make ideal spaces for people and wildlife.
Brian Excell showed us his garden pond and a striking spiral sculpture, with reeds and lily pads making an inviting habitat for amphibians.
Nicky Heming photographed her growing operation, with green shoots beginning to appear in grow bags and a collection of potted plants soaking up the sunshine.
Her garden wall is hand-painted with an array of colourful flowers including lavender and hyacinths.

Showing off all four levels of her garden, Sue Birrell sent in a picture of wooden steps rising through tiers of lawns.
With a wooden shed across the back of the garden, trees lining the fences and raised flowerbeds surrounded by sleepers, she has made a tranquil and private space to enjoy nature in this summer.
