Today was the day we introduced the new additions generously given to us by the Botanische tuin Afrikaanderwijk <3 !!
We began like usual doing a little clean up job before then moving the plants from their temporary home on the Rib balcony to Shared Grounds. We decided to begin by grouping the plants according to their growing height, small low growers, medium height and tall, before then distributing them over the more open bed and trying to distribute them fairly evenly around the patch. We weeded out the ground a little bit, and were careful whilst opening up the soil to insert the new plants, trying to be as considerate as we could over the disruptions we were implementing. It also gave us a moment to reacquaint ourselves with the different species that we were bringing in, from ground covers, tall growing perennials, and bushy shrubs.
We hope these new additions will introduce new layers and textures into the garden, bolstering the ecosystem chorus to a grand and complex form :)
