I have a small courtyard garden area that I would like to organize
I am thinking that I might have maybe 2 japanese maple trees Other than the maples I think that a small magnolia tree might be a possibility? What variety would be good?
The area is facing east, and is shaded by my house to the north and my neighbour's house (and boundary wall 2 m) to the south There is a red-brick wall 2 m to the east. There are double glazed doors to the west. In reality it is practically constantly shaded. The area is approx 5m x 3.6 m
I also think that I will have a couple of plants in large pots that like shade - black bamboo and fern. I will also probably have a very simple water feature.
Any difficulties with my aspirations?
