I thought a garden chat and photo thread would be a good idea.
This way, we have a space to share current pictures and discuss dandelions and other plants.

@haydee Wonderful retaining wall on the slope. It has a very special charm.

It extends up to the tree. There is about a seven-meter (23 feet) height difference or so.

This is the first time I see your house..

@ypg this has been seen several times before

The wall is original. Several generations have worked on it. You can still clearly see the lime plaster from the former feed storage room. The old cowshed area gets mossy in winter.
We did not want to demolish it. We don’t like concrete walls. That’s why we are also building all the new walls from sandstone. Almost 20 meters (65 feet) with two visible sides.
This year, I plan to re-point the basement room.

I also really like it. It somehow has the flair of an ancient Roman city.

Normally, there would be muscular gladiators standing there, ready to serve wine if needed. Unfortunately, this does not comply with the current COVID-19 regulations.

Definitely a very nice wall.
