king 11,975 Posted May 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 Some fantastic gardens on here fellas. Not enough likes for everyone. Mine doesn't get the title "garden" I'm afraid. Just a mass of gravel. Haha. I gravelled it not long after moving in to reduce maintenance as non of us are keen gardeners and I've been to busy with the rest of the house to do anything outside... Plans for the next 12 months are to put decking on the patio and build up the retaining wall an extra 12 inches. I am doing away with the slabs and having railway sleepers. Im having a concrete base at the top, the full width of the garden up to the garage and having a block of 4 kennels. I am replacing all fencing. Then finally in the centre I'm having a raised pond Approx 15 foot by 8 foot. It won't be anything like some of yours on here but you can only work with what you've got I suppose. I would recommend you scrap all them plans gaz put 1ft of top quality top soil all over and get kanny and BGD around.to plant the lot in high grade super skunk lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Waz 4,266 Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 (edited) Took this photo about a fortnight ago, double yoker rainbow! Not a recent one, but looking upto the house, taken some alders out on the opposite bank, but as soon as I can theyre all coming out. Took this the other day sat on the tractor after a quick hour of topping after work, wheels on the car were spinning on the grass the other day, missing the L200!
