Gargen Rockery

I Finally made a start on the actual groundwork in the garden.

I ended up starting in the far corner, as quite by accident I was given some granite lumps from a neighbour which were perfect for the rockery I had planned for that spot. I found that Ferns are a great plant for very shaded areas, so along with the weed suppressing sheeting I had, I just needed to get the railway sleeper to have all the materials.

Grass stripped off. Soil (soil? I mean junk from the house build like stone and sand) was dug out and replaced with good peat and earth mix.


Railway sleepers were cemented in, and membrane laid, and ferns planted.


Finally, The gravel was laid in around the ferns.
