Your garden is beautiful, I've really enjoyed seeing it grow, I'm desperate to get out in mine and tidy things up but the weathers just not on my side atm
I took all the lawn out of my back garden a few years ago and have a cobbled path that is surrounded by plants, it looks amazing in spring, summer but slightly sad at the back end 1 debt vs 100 days part 6-11total paid £8,135.86 Final Debt [STRIKE]6,948.61[/STRIKE] £3,174.940 -
It looks so lovely and I have enjoyed watching it grow.
Are the houseleeks SemperVivums? I'm being rather lazy and not looking up how to look after my 2 pots of those.
I have a disused terracotta chiminea and thought they would look suited in that.
What do you think? Should it be loads of gravel and a little soil?0 -
Thanks for this lovely thread! It has inspired me as I am about to redo a garden. May I just ask, where did you buy the gravel? I would like to buy cheap gravel and soil but I have no idea of where to find it. Does anyone know of any good websites?
