Deano's Back North Facing garden
Progress Journal (22)
My own gardens are small, The north facing back garden is no exception, this is only north facing as next door have a fence of leylandii that blocks the sun under the it. It is not quite a north alignment as almost all of it has full sun around mid-summer for the first few hours of sun light in the morning.
When we got here in September 2006, the back garden looked like a clay tennis court, there wasn’t even grass growing – the only thing were some brambles and nettles towards the back of the hedge… 1 rotavator, good few boxes of clay breaker, 15 bags of sand and grit and lots of manure later, there was something that looked like a freshly plowed field… Almost 2 years have passed and the both the back borders are looking good and starting to mature.
There are a few plans going into this garden currently as I have moved four Geraniums that had gone a little wild. These have been moved to a little side border than runs down the side of the drive.
