| Working in the fourth dimension |
Three days ago my class was was asking me what the fourth dimension was. Well, i said, we have already worked with the fourth dimension. Oh what is it Stephanie. Take a guess, i said. It is somewhere in this classroom? Is it water? Is it metres? Is it heaviness? Finally one of them said, is it time? Yes, it is time. Here is my TARDIS garden in all its glory. One month on.

| Everything is growing |
Well, over the past two weeks all the plants have grown steadily daily, to the point where they have filled out all the gaps. Here is peony, parsley, violas, and nettles - and honey suckle...I can't wait for the next two weeks.
 |
| More violas |
 |
| Here is the pool |
It has developed a more weathered look and around it are nettles, lettuces and more flowers.
 |
| The camomiles are also doing great. |
 |
| Vege corner |
Here we have strawberries, peas, calendulas, delphiniums and pak choy. I do not have to buy greens anymore from the supermarket. I just pick the plants for salad.
 |
More pak chop interplanted with lavender. And beans.
And artichoke. |
 |
| It takes about three years for a garden to establish itself. |
 |
| The herb area has really taken off. |
 |
| Potatoes in containers... wonder what the harvest will be like |
It makes me marvel that i did not know anything about gardening. I was mostly an armchair gardener. Then i began doing it in school and i realised that this was quite easy. In three years time this place is going to look amazing.
And this is what it looked like in April!
