The area on the RH side, looking lusher than it really is, is about 5' deep to the neighbor's fence. We built the two garden beds on the LH side, paralleling the width of the property, so they are long but narrow beds. In between is a dry-concrete patio to keep the weeds down and put our lounge chairs! Some of the plants are: Japanese maple, bearded iris, helichrysums, echiums, nasturtiums, hellebore, cestrum, citrus, rugosa rose, cytisus (broom), calla lilies, canna lilies, New Zealand flax (phormiums), mimosa, oleander, lamium, limonium, star jasmine, aucuba. |
