Walled 'patio' garden
Autumn and everything is still going strong

 

The downstairs walled patio garden
opens out from both the kitchen and
the living room.
I try to keep it green all year round
and am increasing the number of 
evergreens.
The end of the patio is in constant 
shade and the rest is rather sunny.
I have loads of climbers.

This is how it looked in 2005...
