    I broke old slabs and used them as a wall/feature, they really need to be dipping for the best effect, if you can see the top surface or side surface then it losses the effect. They also need to be of the same thickness.

     

    small front garden many years ago..

    back garden, you have to look carefully to spot the wall, ignore the soapsud foam that my naughty child introduced to the waterfall..

    Gillian. Love the dingy idea. I sometimes drive through a village to work and they have old farm machinery with stuff planted in and around the machinery which changes through the seaons, it's really effective.

    Hi

    If i had £800 to spend on a garden i would be lost!

    A garden should slowly develop find out what you rearly like,

    trial and error' cheap plants beg borrow and swap.

    look at your neighbours plants admire them, you may even be offered one.

    i give no end to other keen gardeners.don't rush take  your time! and ENJOY!!!

    Patty, I agree I devide my annuals and swaps with friends. When I watch gardeners world I always wonder how many hundreds their projects have cost. My garden has taken 30 yrs to get to this, all done on a budget.
