Water Tanks

We've had three rain water tanks put in, now we need some rain!!

A Dry River Bed

In the vain of a Japanese Garden, we have decided to put in a dry river bed. Having dug out the bed which runs from the tap to the driveway, a few mounds were created to give pride of place to the japanese maples and the chinese elm.

...To this

In the shadier part of the yard, and over the Hydrangeas, a new chicken hutch, with a roof, was built!

From this...

No roof on the chicken hutch meant that of a night, they would fly up into the citrus trees to roost!

The Kaffir Lime Tree

The earth was ready, so in went the Kaffir Lime Tree. Looking a bit droopy in this picture, but hopefully it will pick up.

A pond as well

After flattening the terraces, we had a pond dug out also. It sits on the lower side of the driveway so will be a good spot for all the water to run into.

The bobcat has been and gone

What once was a few terraces and a couple of trees is now a dust pit...or a blank canvas awaiting a masterpiece!
