Spring garden

Spring has arrived in the garden and it is looking very lush and green. The garden is based on sand ontop of rock and because or this the water either just drains away or in the hottest part of the year it just runs across the surface.  So i have been trying to build some soil up and creating compost. It is a slow process but hopefully one that will help the garden to flourish.

I really love to wander around the garden and see what has been happening. I find it exciting to see new growth and see the seasonal changes. There is always something reassuring about seeing the same plants change as the seasons roll by. After having lived with my last garden for 22 years i am still getting used to my new garden and the new challenges of a coastal garden.
