The garden has a fantastic 120 year old magnolia tree in the middle. Around this are a mixure of evergreens and fruit trees. It has taken a season to know what they are; a yellow plum and two types of pear trees. There is also a laurel, several grape vines, hibiscus, wisteria, oleanders and one common, but still unidentified, tree. In spring the flowering of the japonica and forsythia was stunning. They have had to be moved for the pool terrace but we're hopeful they will successfully transplant to other parts of the garden. We've got seven fantastic roses, surprisingly this is a great area for growing roses despite the high average temperatures. So far they have been prolifically flowering for six months. Again we've had to move a couple of them for the pool work, but they should go back into place soon. Looking foward to the earth moving and messy work to finish so we can really sort the garden out. At least things grow quickly and easily here.
