Garden Projects - Part 1
Saturday, 8 July 2017
This week I’ve been working on a number of garden projects including continuing my work on our very steep and a bit shady bank that is next to the driveway. About six weeks ago I finally finished removing all of the ivy from it which took a few weeks and a few trailer loads with of green waste. Since then the slope has been sitting waiting for something new to happen. So this week I bought some sleepers and pegged them into the slope, then planted some new plants there. I left the old plastic sheeting (installed by the previous owners) to make it harder for new weeds to come though (I’m sure the ivy is just regrouping somewhere, waiting until I go back to work before making a new attack!).
Anyway - it still doesn’t look all that neat and tidy, but it’s a big improvement on the weeds and ivy which were there. I wish I’d taken a 'before' photo to prove it! You'll have to make do with the 'after' photos.
