Garden Ideas

As winter is drawing in I like to get so much done and I've started in the front where is needed since it hasn't been touched for a long time.  I will be showing you stages as I go along to transform a boring space to something interesting by placing big boulders to emphasise a "Spanish" style from back home.

From this....
And then the rest will be shown next time - to be continued....

Transformation

In most gardens you always have an area that you are not sure what to do with! After visualising and creating a layout theme.  Then it comes to the boring bit of clearing the rubbish ready for preparation it took several big bags and runs to the tip, but it gets to the exciting part of transferring something bland to a "wow" factor.

Here it shows several stages of the transformation;

Art Display

During one of my walks with my two beautiful dogs I came across this Art display and I believe it represents a dog similar to a friend of mine who has a very handsome boy a "greyhound".

Interesting don't you think.....

Garden Design Final Stage

When seeding grass you have to prepare the ground making sure it's flat, weed free for preparation and by dividing the ground into sections for sowing with a back and forward motions watering and feeding well during the growth stage.  Once grown cut lightly and keep watering every day to establish a beautiful green grass and don't forget to feed it three times a year. 

It takes several weeks to plan, prepare for each project depending on weather, but this year has been a good one to transform a boring site into something spectacular I am very proud of the results and in time it will blossom to a garden 'oasis' were you can relax and enjoy!
