Backyard touchups

Just added a little colourful mulch and re-potted the dragon fruit. I have had the dragon fruit for ages - prior to build but they have just been sitting in their little pots and left unattended.. They were not in good shape. Not even staked! So finally got them into a bigger pot and gave them some TLC. :)

Yep, a few caps missing.. I need another 100 so will organise them in the next few weeks.

I was going to use 'decorative pebbles' on the side.. but at over $300 per cube..
not right now. Ill see how well the mulch lasts

A blast from the past..

Just thought I would look for an image of the backyard prior to the work. The best I have that matches one of my current images(for comparison) is during the rear excavation. So, I have put them side by side..


It has been a long race but we got there in the end. There is still a lot of small bit  of work to do that will keep me occupied, but I am happy with where we are at!

Backyard cleanup

Just did a bit of tidying up today. Added some timber under the fences, put some pot plants up the back, mulched the tomatoes and mowed the lawn!

Rear fence completed

Finally! We are fully fenced!. I have been to bunnings and got a bunch of treated pine to put under the fence so I can finish it off nicely with turf and decorative pebbles. The pine will be covered once finished, so it is only there to hold thins in place. That is a project Ill start on tomorrow.

For now, the pics.
