The girls begin a woman's corner






Given free reign on a small section of the left hand side of the garden, Sandra and Catherine decided, surprise surprise, to create a female garden. They busily and lovingly cleared away the weeds and set about creating curves and bumps that represented the female form. Limited by the choice of plants immediately available they chose those that have healing virtues for specific female complaints...Marigold (Calendula off) , Mugwort (Arthemesia officnalis), Borage (Borago officinalis), yarrow (Achillea Millefolium), Ladies Mantle (Alchemilla vulgaris), Raspberry leaves (Rubus idaeus). The onlky worry I have about this female garden is that the curvy bumps will be very dry for the plants as the water will run straight of them....something to look at in a bit more detail as the season continues.
