Behind the Fig Tree

​The newly weeded, ready-to-grow area behind the fig tree.
The photos below show how the area looked after we had weeded. I had pulled down the rocks which had never been placed properly as a wall, which you can see in the photo on the left. In the photo on the right, I have done the rock wall and planted the pretty pink ground cover. Although it's tiny, I also have the native violet there. Both should totally cover the area some time soon. The very artistically placed cut branch from the old fig tree is meant as a decoration because of the lovely lichen on the wood. Eventually the native violets will decorate it too. The fig is delirious with joy after being pruned and the new growth is thick and strong. You can see an errant fig in the top photo. It's too early for the figs so it fell off soon after I took the photo. In this part of the fig tree garden, the plants are pinks and purples. In the part that you can't see here to the right of the fig in the top picture, the area is planted with cream and blue. With luck I will be able to take a photo of it next week and then we'll be done with the fig tree garden.
