Spring Garden

Spring Garden with transplants foundlings and resurrections, note Greenhouse behind.

Note raised Veggie Beds beyond

Floor it


You may recall previous references to the hideous salmon pink ceramic tiles. Our plan was to cover these with rubber or vinyl but, after laying this 'Ardex K15' floor levelling compound, we are thinking to simply seal this with epoxy and leave it. Looking more minimal already, and such a relief to not have to look at the tiles.





Check it out!! K15 plus two coats of sealer and we are in hipster heaven. Tiles begone!

Veggie Beds


Using the carpet we ripped out of the House to line the boxes, we set about preparing our 'No Dig' garden.

To raise the level up, we chucked in some hay bales.

Then newspaper, sugarcane mulch, compost, chicken manure & lime in repeating layers until the level comes close to the top of the box.

After watering its ready for planting.
