Koru Garden

I am very excited about this method and now prefer it to the concrete organoponico walls but they both have different functions.

It is very simple to put  the manuka stakes in after outlining the shape you want to follow with 13mm black alkathene pipe held in place with weed mat pins. Then you lash on the bamboo slats and apply the paper adobe plaster.

These walls are very strong and highly stable because of their curved nature.

Eventually the bamboo and manuka will rot out or become brittle but the plaster itself is the strength of the structure, not the wooden framework. Thats just an armature to hang the plaster on.

Grant.
