Native riverbed run

Few months back decided I needed to add some drainage around the wife's studio as it was a muddy area (That sat) after rain and turned abit of the lawn into a sludge area not appealing at all, made mowing fun lol
What should have been an easy dig around the studio, put in drainage and be done with it turned into something else completely, I looked at the lay of the land once digging started and thought hmmm I could do a small riverbed kinda thing here, and then as per normal the brain got into bigger and better mode, had an old pond lying around, got the tools out and BHAM took about 4 months all up on and off and we are nearly done, I had a Dragonfruit area up top we have pulled those out and relocated them and stage 2 will commence soon (photos went out of order )

Re: Native riverbed run

:smile: thanks mate, the pebbles serve a double purpose, apart from looking pretty cool they are great for drainage, about 6 inches out from the pebbles is a trench all along the length about 450mm deep filled with pebbles, no water at all comes near the house :smile: 
works a treat

have a gr8 Xmas
