A Return to Paul's Garden

By Alternativeeden @markngaz

Autumn is in full swing here and lots of expected changes in the garden are happening. Before we look into these seasonal changes in our garden let us look take you first a month back into Paul's garden first. A fabulous exotic garden that we have featured before and revisited last month as part of our Koi Club day of pond visits.

This bed greets you as you enter his garden from the side entrance, fabulous isn't it?

Back to the planting, his display this year is just as good, if not notches higher from what he showcased last year.

His main passion of course are cacti and succulents, and there were so many lovely specimens on display.
