New life for a tiny back garden
This little garden behind a new build house had been just laid to "lawn on rubble" by the developers, and while the inside of the house was modern and stylish, the outside needed a bit of tlc to bring it up to the same standard.
There was one spot which got most of the sun so using that as a starting point, I put together a mini garden which despite its size still has space for a coffee table, shed, 2 birch trees, espaliered fruit trees, lawn, flower beds and herb garden! Not to mention the rabbit hutch....
