I live in a street of granny flats and we share a communal garden. As usual this is just grass so when I moved in I started to introduce a few pots etc. because it was so depressing. This has sort of grown and my container garden is spreading out. My neighbours are happy with this as they like the colour and watching the birds at the feeder. As you can imagine this is costing me a fortune. This month the local council asked for people to apply for grants if they're trying to make communal gardens nicer. The examples they gave seemed to be much bigger projects than mine and seemed to involve more people but I thought I'd give it a try. I completed the form, attached photos of the garden and asked for money to buy a skimmia, a lavatera, a dappled willow and a bag of compost (the limit was £50). Today I got a letter saying that if I buy the plants and send them the receipts they'll reimburse me up to £50. I've ordered the plants and can't wait for them to come
