From a pile of rocks and weeds, I made a strip garden that requires no water. Well, it gets some from the sky but no one ever has time to do more than that. I planted mainly succulents, but along the wall strip we put plumbago, the hardiest plant known to man or beast, or even delivery trucks. Below is the dry strip, rock filled and gravel topped. Out of this, with a little compost, a healthy garden was made, immediately above and below.

I love everything I see here! Red is my favorite color that's why I fell in love with it in an instant! This garden is simply one of the best gardens I've seen so far. I have to commend you because it seems like you have worked for that and it's worthy to be called as "red garden". I would love to see this garden in person because I can feel that it will make me happy! I am a huge fan of different kinds of flowers, and I really appreciate that your garden is mostly red!

The Garden BlogBeaumont House is a South Australian National Trust home built in 1839. I used to walk past the place often and think to myself that someone ought to do something about the garden. Archives
