Our garden

Hello dear readers.... well it's been awhile since I've posted anything to do with our house... and as part of my new 'inner harmony' kick I'm on - and given it's such a gorgeous time of the year - I'm trying to spend at least 10 minutes in the garden each day to 'decompress'. You may remember when we first moved in, the extensive landscaping we had done to 'tier' the backyard and make it a bit more user-friendly... if not, see here and here and here.

I have to confess that the vegie patch never really eventuated. Our backyard cops the full force of the afternoon queensland sun AND backing on to a reserve we seem to have our fair share of possums and other wildlife that LOVED my crops as soon as they used to come to fruition, so I gave that away for now. However, here are some recent pics of the planted gardens.... as you can see, it will be a lot of hard work to get this fully planted up and looking good by September 2012, which is my goal... but I'm getting there.
