The front garden

My big project this year is to take up the remaining lawn and put down gravel on the other side of the front garden.

beautiful front garden, I wish mine had at some soil in it for planting.

I've had to dig out so much builders waste,including a plank to get to this :-))

Why are you going to gravel it, Annella ?

There is only a small strip of grass left now Louise, I gravelled the other side last year and have been able to grow so many more plants. The front garden soil is the worst heavy clay and is south facing so always baked dry, The lawn never looked good but the pebble mulch seems to work well :-))

I love the way your path edging is stepped rather than just straight, it looks so good like that. A lovely photo!
