loads worth of green waste too.
Though I imagine it will be dealt with on site, and not money
spent like that.
We currently have 4 green wheelie bins as we got an extra, and
next door lets us use theirs while away on trips.
There is much machine mulching to do too. I could not 'see the
wood for the trees' so to speak, but now slowly I can.
This area above, is a before, and pic below an after shot of a couple of
hours weeding. Getting to ground level now.
The sandstone flagged path is re-emerging.
The studio site is clearing, and although narrow, will fit the shed
on the side, and access to the backyard.
Will this tree fern survive? Also a tall one but it is very old and leggy.
The Summer has been harsh this year.
Minus the waste, this will be the view from the window of the studio.
Below is the view of the tall gums.
Pile 1: Under this pile of sticks is a couple of tonne of rock.
Pile 2: Firewood to shift and fill.
Old shed to relocate and install for gardening tools elsewhere. Pretty battered,
but hopefully still serviceable enough. Plus old gate.
Lookin down into the channel that floods the basement, which should be factored in
with excavations for the side site. The dreaded Jasmine is in here too.
These concrete slabs will be used for the floor of the smaller shed.
The big heap of rock is visible under the weed and vine. Much of it will be
utilised in the base slab for the bigger shed /studio.
The shed will run alongside neighbour's fence, and if we move
house will probably flat pack and go with us.
6 giant weed bags from early this morning.
A visitor this weekend.
Lots of nice plants waiting to go into freshly cleared garden areas.
Bec is tackling the Bamboo and Wistaria, tough foes.
I need to green screen this 3 and a half storey monstrosity from next door. A looming monolith which overlooks us and sends lots of noise. Hate it. More tall Crepe Myrtles, Sacred Bamboo, and Lilly Pilly probably. Plus powerlines and telephone cables to be aware of.
One of two possum houses we put up.
More plants waiting, Sandpaper Figs, Native Orchid, etc.
Birdbath no. 3 to install though probably will be painted liquid Terracotta.
The massive hail storm yesterday smashed off this tree fern frond. Shows the power.
It's great to see your dream taking shape Shelley! There's a daunting amount of work to be done, but how wonderfully satisfying once it's done. Loved seeing photos of the bush surrounding your home. Great that you've put out some nesting boxes too. Has anyone moved in yet?
