Wild and wonderful

We have deliberately left a section of the South Western part of the garden wild to encourage wildlife and to create a free and naturalistic feature. In time this will become a rustic orchard growing old varieties of fruit trees. My hope had been that we might grow apples here but the ph level will, I think, be too high. But more of this plan soon.  In the meantime we have placed staddle stones around the space along with a bee hive Vanessa repainted in colours that harmonise with the main house.

I have also cut a pathway through the long grass to create a sense of journey.  In time this will run to a summerhouse which we hope to build.  For the time being the path merely suggests a path across the wild areas going to places unknown.
