We planted the last of the plants in the front yard and have finished moving rocks (at last!!).
The before and after shot...
It's so great to have most of the plants that we have in the ground now. There are only couple left over which we will transplant into larger pots before their home in the backyard is found - means that we did a pretty good job planning how many plants we needed.
It's hard to photograph at the moment, as there's not a lot of contrast, but when the gravel is put in it should come up really nice.
We've also planted with growth in mind - we have been mindful of how high and how wide each plant gets and positioned accordingly. There is only one plant that I'm not sure of (as in not sure how high/wide) as it's one we've had in a decorative pot for 2-3 years - but we've put it in a place that it can be removed if it does get too big without affecting the rest of the garden too much.
We now have the paving (stepping stone style) and a couple more plants to put in along the south side fence (to the right) and maybe a couple of extra rivercascades along the two front windows.
This is where the paving will go...
We may get to these next weekend but there's no promises....
Next priority will be the back section outside the lounge-room window... This gap in the concrete under the piles of bricks and pavers
