hi everyone, due to problems logging into my previous name I have had to start a new blog on our garden, here is where we are at this year, trachys have reached the roof, washie took a hit with the bad weather but has recovered well, everything else did quite well apart from my variegated agave which I covered with a cloche but slugs destroyed it, never bothered with it before, anyway I removed a pup before winter and put in plastic greenhouse and has done well, my bottlebrush is now in the region of 8 to 9 feet tall about 6 feet wide and survived winter without protection where as a few around our way died back. been i n a few years now so maybe thats why, hope you like the pictures

Hi Shanks, love the grass tree, were did you buy it from? The rest of the garden looks very neat and tidy as well.
Don't Just sit there, plant something!
