Someone should do this in their backyard!

Just found it in a random google search. "Sunken Alcove Garden in New Zealand"

Not sure I would really want it .The thought of maintaining it would scare me .If someone else did the work and did not charge then that is another story .

I think I run on the side of scared to death of that .I guess I have a fear of things unknown .My last name says it all Murphy so caution is my main goal .Went to NC and almost got hit twice by people running a red light

I woukd love to own that because if I did it would mean I would be a filthy rich bugger. I coukd picture squads of pigeon english speaking gardeners doing my bidding while I get carried around by 4 big eunuchs on my way to the harem! Damn....life would be good .
