Self care by growing a garden

Re: Self care by growing a garden

I couldn't remember the proper species name @Former-Member I don't have the plant label anymore (I keep them).

So I went by the common (marketing) name.

My place was like a desert, bare barren sand - when I moved in. Virtually nothing there.

I planted on a massive scale - over 100 plants in about 10 years, most planted in the first few years.

I'm left with the tough deep-rooted survivors (mostly), at the moment.

Most of my ground-covers are long-gone.

That's a nice picture of Ogre Ears @Former-Member

I found out that it's actually a Jade plant - you would know that one.

Just an unusual variety, leaf-shape.

Well get cracking @Shaz51
Do you have larger pots you need?
Do you have extra soil?

Mr Darcy is on a roll, he got a garden bed weeded and mulched yesterday.

Well done Mr @Former-Member.

I have to get back to ours but kind of lost interest until it is actually ours.

 

Here is another of my projects.

We brought this garden arch with us. Planning to install it properly and it will be an opening to a path and bridge over a fish pond that needs refurbishing.

Here is the fish pond that was filled in by the previous owner.
