Here is the current state of the garden line. It was too hot for 2 months, and it has become completely overgrown. I have cosmetic projects in the works.

Paul,

 

This is hardly overgrown! It really came to life with these plantings!

 

Long ago, you had pondered how to make the trestle / rack railway look like a mountain.  What about using a bouganvilla planted under the rack raiway and trimmed so that it becomes the mountain?   They seem to thrive!

Thanks, Eric!

  I like the way it looks, but it will be trimmmed back. I have ideas to dress things up, all cosmetic. I feel like the track work is already complete. Consider these pictures the " before" state. When I make progress, I'll post " after" pictures.

  The weather cooled, and I got 3  good days of operation!

I never get tired of the cog train. Running up and down, it adds a lot of visual interest. I should do something with the support tracks, but it is low maintenance the way it is. I am trimming shrubbery to tidy up the yard,and I have a few ideas that I want to test out.....
