Rain and more rain! A tarpaulin enabled work on the block-work raised planters to carry on.

Drier underfoot now the decking is down. The planter walls have been rendered and painted and the plants planted. The fencing would normally have been done before the planting, though the plants were already on site so it made sense to plant them rather than keep moving them about on such a small site.

Lighting is an integral part of any garden and for relevantly little money you gain two gardens for more or less the price one. Above shows you that it can be achieved for a very reasonable outlay and without looking overdone.
