My New Front Garden

Post by George Nesfield »

Hi,
This is my new front garden I have used my bridge of the four seasons from my last Japanese garden and a few stepping stones also some of my limestone rocks and bought some 8mm to10mm chippings to give it the karasansui feeling which I have raked .
The photo is taken from our front bedroom window.

Absolutely love it. Great job. When I move and have a bigger yard I want one of these. I think I will do a lot of Japanese type gardening.

Hi,

I am keeping well and thinking of making my koi pond larger but at my age 81 it takes a lot of energy ,so I think that I will be doing a little at a time,
To see what I have been up to go to youtube and put koiboy01 in the search.
