gretel's Side garden

Garden Type: Shade | Sun: Dappled Sun | Soil: Sand I'm Organic!

The garden between the house and the neighbours fence. Its long and skinny with a few large shade trees.

Improvements I have made to it (its one of my few gardening successes) included building up a garden bed wall to stop the dirt going all over the footpath along the top part of the garden. This made the garden instantly a lot neater, and while digging to place the bricks in, as well as removing the really ugly under shrubs. I dug up a heap of unidentified bulbs. Planting these out evenly underneath the trees, they immediately sprouted and it looked beautiful.

Still needs constant weeding to try and get the nasturtiums and grass out though.

Doesn’t get watered at all. The photo shown for it is the one taken directly after I added in the brick wall.
