Creativity went into the garden

 

Fiona and I put in quite a few hours over the last few days reworking some garden spaces; adding a bit of art; and relocating orchids for G.

The photo above shows what the walk down beside our townhouse now looks like after we removed bushes that have failed to thrive; creating a garden edge out of tree surround blocks; and planting heaps of violets from G's place. A few more images follow.

We also relocated a bench seat so folk can pause in the garden walk below our house.; and added a couple more cubes to the three we had installed along the walk below our home. The new cubes will grey off over time to match the others - there could be more fiddling with the placement yet!!! We plan to make and install a post in the area behind the bench.

Following are photos of the orchids we relocated for G. He had planted then at Deckled Edge Press but they couldn't be appreciated by folk - so now they are in nooks near his townhouse.

We like this bird feeder we purchased - it is good for offering fruit to the birds.

It is very satisfying to put one's energy into a little gardening creativity.
