The CEO bought this place before we married and he has put heaps and heaps of manure into the soil over 38 or so years. It is red soil here so is great for growing plants which I guess is why we have the Carnival of Flowers each year. Also over that time he has put in probably hundreds of bulbs which have been given to him and they come up every year without any TLC from us.
