Suggestion by Andy Broadhurst – comments please

Many years ago I installed the old metal water container on the top piece of grass and planted it with flowers. It has been neglected over the past 2 or 3 years and is a bit of an eyesore.  I was thinking of removing the container and replacing it with a bed of shrubs that I have been growing.  It would become a bed that is far easier to maintain especially if I use the wood chip to suppress weeds.  Comments anyone? info@msnallotments.net or andy.w.broadhurst@gmail.com
