This is the same area of the garden as shown in the previous photo some seven years later. A change in interests and the critical shortage of water in South Australia have seen a massive change in this area of the garden. Previously this area was a part of a very large cut flower and vegetable garden - lately much of it has been left fallow for most of the year.
The salvias in the foreground were planted in response to looming water shortages and proved attractive plants continually visited by birds and bees. Unfortunately two winters of frosts more severe than any we have known in the area have really taken a huge toll on them.
This area, once so attractive, is now a bit of an eyesore and needs some development!
