Hi, thought I'll show you a bit of my garden.  I believe in fung shei and try to adapt it into my garden but then when you are dealing with plants, they do not adjust to your beliefs!  My garden is a funny shape, it measures 45ft at one side and only 30ft on the other, because they are built on land that curves round with the river.  If you imagine this oblong shape with a distinct point at the longest side, I had to have something to 'hide' it, so I had a 12ft by 10ft shed placed there and at the end of this sharp corner, I made a brick/stone stand for my compost bin, raised so that I can collect the 'juices' from it - sort of making my own babybio.  In fact most of the corners in my garden are blocked with something, the more opened ones are blocked with something sharp to stop the unknown forces at work.  The far end corner (near gate) has a pointed Yucca which one of the neighbours gave it to us as a tiny shoot.  Other corners have acer trees - my green one is producing seeds which I will try to pot when ripe.
 
  
 
My box plants - my Green Dragon guards the back of my house.  
You can see my potted lilies and I am curious at this 'lily' that the garden centre sneaked in the package.
 
   
 
And finally, our Shark's fin marrows are in, amongst the shrubs.  They are coming on SLOWLY due to that spot of cold weather a few weeks back.
 
   Lily wondering if anyone has grown an acer from a seed.  Please let me know?
