We’re living in an urban FOREST!

It is official there are six million trees in Johannesburg. On satellite pictures, the city looks like a rain forest, albeit man-made. There are 1.2 million trees within the parks and on the pavements, and 4.8 million in private gardens throughout the suburbs. And this is a fact, they have been counted.

We are grateful to be in a suburb with lots of large trees. On our new property there is a tiny little forest in the one corner with trees, boulders and even a little pathway up the side! Looking forward to exploring it and developing and making pretty the various corners of our garden.
