Low Maintenance Gardens


Was feeling very slothful reading the excellent advice given on this
subject.   I'm afraid that my garden is "low maintenance" because I'm lazy.
  This method does have compensations (ignoring all the rods being
manufactured for one's back) insofar as some of the happiest moments have
happened  accidentally.   At the moment I have a huge fennel that seeds
itself about,
one by the birdbath has been taken over by a clematis with tiny purple
flowers that was grown from a swiped seed and never found a home for.  
There is a very tall burnt orange knipophia in the background.   Its good
to look at plus the Blue Tits love it.   I didnt get around to replacing a
pane of glass in the greenhouse roof, a passionflower (violacea) has
overspilled and cascades down the side, right by my chair on the patio.  
If I was tidy  these things wouldnt happen, so I'll live dangerously for a
while longer.
