JoJo tank with large plants around it to soften it: lemon verbena, lavender, lemon grass and comfrey 7. Two x tripods made with gumpoles. 8. Pathways with flat natural rock stepping stones in irregular patter, pennyroyal in between. Path to be edged on outer edges with short bamboo poles, on right, pennyroyal to merge with thyme and oregano groundcover of inner section. Planting lining the outer edges to include low growing violets, colourful alyssum and other insect attracting flowers and herbs 9. Wheelbarrow filled with mixed vegetables and herbs. 10. Inner section to be covered with creeping herb ground cover: mix of various different creeping thyme and oregano, ceating beautiful patchwork of colour. Selection of terracotta pots of different shapes and sizes to be arranged on central section and planted up with vegetables and herbs. The central pot is a half wine barrel (Heidi to provide) with a lemon tree and tansy in it. 11. Trellises on wall with tomatoes and beans growing up them. Above the trellises the wall will be clad in bamboo poles. 12. Espalier apple tree against the wall. 13. The wall on the laft hand side of the entrance will be used to display small garden/vertical garden options. The wall will be painted cobalt blue to define it from the others, which will all be a neutral sandy colour. The blue wall will have the following: Along the top, a double row of U shaped aluminuim guttering filled with lettuces, greens and some edible flowers (trainling nasturtiums etc). Below this, on the JoJo side, will be a wooden palette, positioned vertically against the wall, planted with various herbs. To the right of this, closer to the entrance will be a stand alone planter with vegetables and herbs. To be provided by Home Organic (See http://www.homeorganic.co.za/About_Us/Gallery/gallery.html for a picture - the ones in the gallery, 6th row down) General Notes. The plan I have drawn up includes a selection of vegetables and herbs that I chose to indicate how we want to create a swirling patchwork of vegetables, herbs and edible flowers. Some of them (such as hairy vetch) I included to indicate a purple colour but I am not locked on to these specific plants being in these specific places.
