Well, at least the weather was considerably better than last week - extra prayers from Ray obviously!. We initially prepared the ground for the planting of this drought tolerant garden some three weeks ago and apparently some of the rocks that we dug out mysteriously disappeared before they could be collected...! This week we turned over and raked the ground before putting down the membrane - then a break for a well earned cup of tea. Simon from the Ventnor Botanical Gardens was on hand with all the plants that we needed and the plan hidden in his head. All went well with about 25 of us beavering away at putting all the plants in then covering the area with wood chip - the task finally being completed around 1:30 p.m.
Photographs and text from Carrie........many thanks...!
