Creating and maintaining a garden demands a lot of time and energy, and also money, which doesn't grow on trees. When I created this garden of ours 10 years ago, I wanted it to become less demanding as it grows, for I knew my energy was not going to last forever.
At present I am neglecting our garden, yet it keeps on surprising me with unexpected splashes of colour and new growth.
To have the opportunity to spend most of my days in our garden, pruning and trimming trees and shrubs, sowing annuals and planting perennials, weeding and feeding the soil with home-made compost, will be my first wish whenever the fairy godmother knocks on my door.
