One step forward two steps back.

It has been an difficult two weeks in the garden. We spent the first of those weeks repairing the damage caused by the wind to our fences. 

Then the area around the trees we planted in the late summer was weeded; a fabric weed suppressing membrane was added and then a rock mulch applied. The rock mulch was made up of the field stones we have dug from the ground, as well as keeping the area weed free it should also help to conserve the water we use.

The 90 km winds that have blown the last three days have destroyed the fencing we erected last week. The joys of Spanish Gardening.
