Gardens in

This is our old garden in the UK. We have sold this house as part of the process of returning to NZ where we hope to create something new from scratch again. It was a badly kept lawn/dog toilet when we bought the house. We designed the garden, laid the paths, built the patio, pergola and t...

The sensory paradise!

New Zealand > Southland > Lumsden

A long process! This garden has more weeds than anything else but I have struggled with small children and a hubby who prefers to play with cars. I call it my sensory paradise (plenty of weeds!) Maybe this year we'll get it sorted? I don't spray either so it takes a lot longer to sort. ...
