garden parties

 

I'm in the middle of doing some landscaping at the moment, as I would like a much more private yard, and more entertaining space outside - it is cheaper than a deck! The same pile of tea tree mulch and garden soil is sitting in my driveway, and has been for about a fortnight now. Opps! I think I have taken off a little more than I can chew. It was a truck load; I'm talking about 1 1/2 cubic metres of soil, 3 1/2 of mulch. 

I have discovered the caboolture markets - forget Rocklea if you are looking for plants. caboolture is a much more enjoyable drive, had 5 times the amount of 'quality' things to buy, and the olive trees were only $20 each. I don't eat olives, but the folliage is stunning.
