Perfect Tortoise Weather

emma_mcraf · 09-05-2020, 02:51 PM

I love this weather - warm and bright without being sticky and uncomfortable. The torts are loving it. Just popped out to see if I could find any of them.

I'm reading Wolfgang's book (again) and I want to get more limestone chips and a bit more gravel to mix in with the soil again. Anyone got any recommendations what size gravel you use for a more natural substrate?
I have lots of pieces of granite, huge pebbles and wood and the shrubs have matured nicely so it's reasonably naturalistic but I know I can do better. Wolfgang is always inspiring. Throw your suggestions at me!!!

Hope you all have a happy and safe weekend. x
