Well, the much promised garden pictures are here at last. No doubt the collective sighs of held breath being released will now resonate through the virtual wind of the world. Basically this is a little corner of the front garden which was looking a bit drab, so I planted a tree (with some little ferns behind it), surrounded by a row of Griselineas, a row of chocolate Coprosmas, and then a row of grasses all topped off with weedmat and bark mulch.
The obligitory "before" picture.

Stage 1, with the tree planted and the first bits of the turf removed.

The first bit of planting done, checking the placement for the Coprosmas. The gold line is the first guess for how much turf I was gonna have to dig up.

Planting and watering all done.

I expanded the quarter circle, and planted some grasses, as well as weed matting the lot and laying some bark mulch down.
