Thinking Garden


So we like these cobble stones for a path. M likes this colour for "something different".


 I like the colour but I think the grey suits better. It still has that touch of brown which does match perfectly with the brick. On the cream and grey you can see the individual pavers more which I don't like.


 

I love this for a striking border.


And I love the soft daisies for the front garden. They do well with the natives and will take the harsh sun.

 I saw this urn water feature on sale. It's nice and would go well. Not a bad price either.

It's very similar to the one we had at our last house.  M DIYed this one for a steal re-using an urn we already had. It was fantastic especially once the plants grew around it. Sorry for the small pic.


But we think we want something more like this in our new house. A wall water feature.
Not these colours of course. Without the gigantic water spout.
 

More like this with the water trickling down creating a nice ambiance. We want fish in the bottom. They would appreciate less turbulance in the water as well. We are also thinking about pulling out our best Jamie Durie and DIYing it.

Won't that be fun!
