Garden Day 20



The front garden is going great guns - having dug it out, tons of drainage stuff is going down as we have to have a porous surface by law to prevent flooding. Then the brick surface layer will go down on top. This will be 'brindle mix' as that is the popular choice around the area. Dan and A have chosen a black brick for the edging - I was out at the time!
In the back, the guys have dug out the bog garden area and it is now lined with the membrane. It is also 60 cms deep and the lining gets filled with rubble and is topped with special boggy soil. The membrane is perforated halfway up to allow some drainage, but the water in the bottom keeps the bog damp.
