22.01.2022 What a difference a mulch makes! Looks great, conserves moisture and suppresses weeds.

22.01.2022 Our little summer vege garden looks great and full of potential

21.01.2022 Upgrading our pathways. Big improvement.

20.01.2022 A touch of gold in my garden this morning

18.01.2022 Spring is not far away. Jonquil, daffodils and wattles in full bloom.

15.01.2022 Top dressing and seeding patches today. Some gentle weekend rain would be nice.

15.01.2022 Our new little bridge into to Labyrinth Garden is coming along nicely. Very satisfying project.

15.01.2022 Spreading compost and laying mulch today. Even have sunshine!

12.01.2022 Splashes of colour everywhere as the roses come alive.

11.01.2022 Once you have an idea of style and colour, have a play around with structure. Doodle sketches are a handy way to help visualise how plantings might work. Once settled on a layout. Look for plants to form the spaces. Not too many varieties. Blocks of plants in odd numbers. Good luck

11.01.2022 Beautiful pacth of colour on a gloomy day

10.01.2022 Gloomy day but there is great colour in the garden.

09.01.2022 Potting up hellebore seedlings today. One of the best winter colour shade plants.

09.01.2022 Bees have plenty to be thankful in our garden. Plenty of pollen and nectar. Our garden benefits from pollination and we get honey. It's a great deal

09.01.2022 I get plenty of variety. Assembled this fantastic Australian designed and manufactured Flow Hive this morning. Don't buy the imported knock off, it does not have the quality built of this precision version.

08.01.2022 Hothouse relocated to new spot. A bit of modifying including a polycarbonate skin to replace the plastic film and it will be ready for 2021 winter.

06.01.2022 Black gold! Compost is the driver of great soil

06.01.2022 Circle of life in the garden. Rotting straw hosts new fungi.

05.01.2022 Not a bad couple of hours work! Rhaphiolepis cuttings taken and Salvia potted up. All ready for spring plantings

04.01.2022 Once you have completed a rough sketch and settled on the plant selection it is worthwhile drawing up to scale. This should give you plant numbers required and a good feel for how it will look when mature. Some colouring will also help to make more realistic.

03.01.2022 Waiting, waiting! This garden will be a mass of colour in the next week or two.

01.01.2022 Fertilising and mulching quince orchard today. Neutrog Bounce Back and pea straw. And a beautiful day to go with it. The Heritage Garden at Sevenhill

01.01.2022 Coring lawns in preparation for spring. Fertilise next week for a green carpet.
