Thanks so much. Unfortunately I have a mainly concrete garden with big planters at the borders, and I really want to pull up the concrete but it's such a big expensive job, it's probably because there's just not enough plants in the outside edges, although I have had success with lavender & herbs, but all my flowers and several other plants sadly got eaten last year. Hoping for a better one!

It was very wet last year. Interesting the herbs did so well, perhaps focus on more plants like those? Such as salvias. Also, climbers and shrubs to go up and build up more woody upward stems.
Yes thank you, that's so true. I saw a post on instagram about this - to introduce Salvia, so that's a solid plan confirmed! My jasmine also has done very well, almost too well it's very enthusiastic about growing over almost every wall. Shrubs - noted on that, so helpful, thank you :)
