The Rehabbing of My garden so far.....

[Martsmac]

Thought I'd start a thread showing some images of how far i have got with the rehab of my front and side garden beds, Also included a few of my back yard which i intend to have completely redone (probably by a pro and not myself though).

I have some much more recent photos which I am going to add to this post. These included the first ever part of my first ever Hard-scape (not amazingly impressive but I'm chuffed i managed to do it this well lol)

Thanks, couple things i don't like

1) The polymeric sand seems to have faded the colour on the bricks quite a bit (I think i must have left some on there when i wet it to activate the polymers) , I'm going to try vinegar to remove some and restore some of the colour.

2) The backs of the bricks didn't seem to fill up with the sand or harden properly after watering so I think im going to install an edging material such as Vigero between the bricks and the soil/mulch to make somewhat a stronger back then I can add some polymeric sand and attempt to set it again!

I know that the bricks arent 100% level but I decided to go ahead anyway haha.

That's a lot of hard work. Well done. Congratulations.
