Gary and I love to garden. We’ve created beautiful gardens at every place we’ve lived. Whether it’s in pots, around a tree or in raised beds, they’ve all been so much fun and have always come out amazing. I wanted to share the photos of these gardens first because they were our favorite. Later, you’ll see the garden we had when we first moved to Maui.
In this yard, there was this really cool old pink peppercorn tree which created the perfect spot for the garden. We gathered lava rocks from a nearby gulch on the property to create the border, then filled it with soil, compost and mulch. Since this house was even further up the mountain from where we are now we needed to make sure there was enough sun for the lettuces, herbs, flowers and peppers. The orange flower is an orchid that had attached itself to the trunk of the tree.
