Dog-Path Garden in Autumn

The back of the Dog-Path Garden shows off in Autumn, when the different colours and textures of the shrubs and grasses form great contrasts underneath the Golden Elm.

Under the Elm

The character of this garden area has changed so much since it was first dug and filled with plants. Gradually perennials are being shifted out and the garden is turning into a real shrubbery (and grassery!).

Self sown Pittosporums have sheltered a lot of the initial plantings, and now they too are getting limbed up or chopped down, to let more light in. The original tree stumps are still here, but you'd never guess where!
