It is a big fake Simon. It is sawdust over weed mat. The path is not used often so we can get away with it.
It is in a corner of the garden that has steps leading to and away from it so a mown lawn path would not be easy to get the mower to.

It did not take any cleverness to do Ozeboy, it just grew like Topsy. I hardly planned anything.
Actually I like the plants to speak for themselves in a garden. Flourishing beautiful plants don't need clever landscaping to look good. They look good on their own.

The visitors came today. Fifteen of them from the Heritage Rose Society. We had a fantastic time. They liked the garden very much and took their time dawdling through it commenting on this and that rose and appearing to be enjoying themselves. I learnt a lot from them and I like to think they also learned a little from me.
They are a nice mob. I'm glad I joined.

Wow Dee!! How wonderful is that - and what a fabulous backdrop! You must find it difficult leaving your part of paradise even to go shopping.

I loved seeing you photos , Billndee, but I wished I had been there in person with the other ladies enjoying your beautiful garden and gazing out to Mount Wellington.
Maybe in the future, please ?
