Aaah, this is a beauuuuutiful garden and such a lovely enthusiastic and informative post, dear @celestialcow ! Thank you for sharing... It made me think of my times in London actually, back in the late '90s, working on permaculture projects in Brixton and Merton... Re-vitalising old allotments and guerilla gardening here and there!

We were ahead of our time in London, but maybe things are coming to fruition more now - it's so exciting seeing the greening of urban spaces: I live in a much more rural location in Italy now, but we still are working collaboratively as a community to bring more symbiosis into the 'urban versus nature' relationship :-D

I'll share your post with my friends who live in Mexico - maybe they'd like to visit these beautiful gardens on day :-)
Blessings!
