    Hi guys

    Need some help here badly, my garden is in need of a serious overhaul. It is a massive garden about 50-60 yards long and 30 yards wide. I have a very low budget maybe could scrape 800e. It will need to be done on such a way that it will only require little maintenance when finished. I also have 2 dogs that will get a decent part of this garden for themselves.

    Can some experienced gardeners on here give me some advice thanks.

    I've recently taken on a similar project on a large site. As budget was a factor and a dog a consideration I decided to fence off a section of garden around the house and turn it into a lawn area with a couple of trees for interest. Then I planted trees in triangles behind the fence to draw the eye further down the garden. I can leave the untended section do its own thing and I can maintain the fenced section easily without my dog destroying all my hard work. Very achievable within your budget, although it may lack the sophistication of a heavily planted garden, this can be remedied over time as budget allows.

    It's got huge potential. Yeah it should probably be divided into smaller sections and do each section as time and money becomes available
