Unplanned work here last week! The lovely aquarium pot in our entrance garden was cracked by the lovely tree we have in it.
We took the opportunity to change the whole garden.
We transfered the tree to a wine barrel and replaced the pots of Bromeliads (which will go to the tropical area) with rocks and grasses.
Job done, now back to the planned changes!
