Re: Design me a garden


Yes, containers are grand and grouping different size ones is a very good idea, especially if you could get some really big ones - they could be plastic and not heavy when empty. Some look very much like ceramic, especially if you coat them with yoghurt and cow dung!!! A "dry" garden sounds just great with grasses, bamboo, agave and yucca perhaps. Very drought tolerant, although I'm not sure how some would survive the winter we've just had. Love the arch idea, although not sure about the positioning because I'm not sure about where your front window looks out.

Re: Design me a garden


Just a personal comment about yucca: if you decide you don't like it, it's almost impossible to get rid of if it's in the ground. There was a huge one in my back garden when I moved; dug it out, came back from a bit of missed root ... went on for three years before I was finally rid of it. I like the arch idea too.
