It's taken me a fair while, but I've nearly finished my yard renovations.

The blocks are Boral Country Manor, all 5.2 tons of them. Heavy and frustrating work at times, the result is quite pleasing though.

Mostly chillies and tomatoes, looking at adding some Gerbras and Gazanias around the edges. Give the native bees some food close to the hive.

Might do sweet corn and beans in the tomato beds once autumn.

It is at that, nearly half the yard is now raised garden beds. When it gets cooler I'll put the Aldi greenhouse back up to overwinter the chillies still in pots. Worked really well last year, wouldn't mine getting a permanent one when I can.
