Photo-blog recording the refurbishment of my previously neglected early 1980's home and garden.

New plants
From the Salvos....
21 Dec 2019 - and in situ:
Two bougainvilleas. No idea how big they will grow, but they will be great as a hedge along that fence.
White ixora.
Tri-color creeper - died, April 2020 :-(. Will buy another eventually.
White bougainvillea ('Penelope'), so that this side,
matches the other side, like so (with the coconut ice boug):
Planted up the 'sandpaper plant', or petrea volubilis - Queen's Wreath.
Trying again with plant #3 of this. The other 2 died.
19 Jan 2020 - all the recent rain has helped kick-start her growth - the lighter green is very attractive
Out the front I need lower bowl-type pots with petunias I reckon, at least to start with, including the tiny plants I found hatching in the garden.
and I moved the green longer planter round the front to cover a rotten cover on the side section.
Effort needed to try to make this corner look much better. Paint, gate, wire, power box, lanterns. Later!
