The blank canvas... My sister's birthday was coming up and I happened to be in Holland. What better present than a quick garden makeover to leave behind a lasting memory? Her backyard is small, about 5m wide by 8m deep. The border at the right was vacant and needed plants.
She indicated her desire for low maintenance yet lush, the seating area at the rear (in front of shed) to be a bit more separated from the front seating area and. And oh yeah, a bit of burgundy colour in the plants, that'd be nice too. Other than that, just make it happen.
To screen the rear seating area off I installed a palisade of round poles, to get a bit more sense of privacy planted a few shrubs against the fence and grasses in front of them.
