Happibun's Bent Prunus garden

Garden Type: Flower | Sun: Full Sun | Soil: Loam I'm Organic!

Marked as 2a on the plan.

This garden is named after the plum tree with a wonky trunk that is planted right in the middle of it.

The border sits along the side of the northern fence of the garden, so it catches a lot of sun.

    This garden has such an old world charm to it. Lots of warm and fuzzy characters, with select fragrant soloists, all performing in concert together.
