Nonsuch is moving! It is finally going back to its own domain, but with new features and a decent blog.

The site is up and running now, although much material still needs to be moved across. Come along and say hello!

Here is the personalised chronicle of my own garden (and house) restoration. I moved into the old run-down house and overgrown garden of Nonsuch on the island of Tasmania in early 2005. Nonsuch is a 1880s weatherboard and sandstone shingled-roofed 'gentleman's residence' that has seen much better days. It once had a huge garden attached, which is now reduced to half an acre. As of mid-2006 I am well into renovation of house and renewal of the garden. The landscapers have terraced and removed, and I am moving in with my seedlings and cuttings. Much of the painful work is over, most of the hard work lies ahead.

You can follow the diary for the weekly update, and follow the story back to early 2005 when I moved into Nonsuch. The photograph and plans pages give you some idea of the layout of the house and garden.
