Our Garden Railway
It was a good time to improve our garden. We added some large green stone for effect. Also, the old wooden trestle was replaced with a gravel grade and retailing wall. Audrey planed a variety of new things, from small trees to coleus plants and "Dusty Miller" plants. A new farm-type windmill added to the list. Take a look and see!
You can see the green rock added against the Brickwell and in the foreground. Note also the miniature pines and coleus. The heather has grown significantly! |
The old wooden "trestle" was replaced with a grade. The retaining wall is further supported by green stone. |
View from the front of the retailing wall and gravel grade. Yes, that's a sundial in the foreground. |
The yucca has also grown. The green stone behind it adds a "wild" aspect to the garden. |
Atop the Brickwell are tiger lilies and inside "Dusty Miller" plans and a sun coleus. Pink gravel was added alongside the track. Below the Brickwell is a coleus. While planting it, Audrey found two more bricks. Those familiar with the story behind our Railway know how bricks turn up in the most unexpected places. |
