Spring is here<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I am lacking anything remotely like a garden or grassy area in the back of the house I need to turn the the from of the house to establish a vegetable patch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The front area is split in two – with the path to the house running up the centre. The two sections had a number of ornamental flower type plants – most of which I didn’t like (eg Bird of Paradise, a number of cactii and other succulents). The ground cover was red bark chips – ewww. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plants we given away or moved and the majority of wood chips removed. On the left where there we no big plants I could clear most of the space and created a 2.4m x 2.4m square with sleepers. As the soil in garden was very dry and sandy I turned it over a couple of times and worked in a few bags of potting mix to add some compost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the right I left the big plants in the middle. I also moved a smaller frangipanni for the other side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you just make out – closer to the house I have started a small “herb section”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
