Australians' love of their gardens can overcome any obstacle, be it a tiny size or a shady aspect. And the results can be spectacular when reality is acknowledged and imagination and creative thinking is applied. Better Homes and Gardens and Tuscan Path want to reward your stunning, original efforts and have joined forces in our Garden of the Year competition (for details, see page 11). Be inspired by this paved courtyard garden which rises to the challenge of being shaded by high walls and neighbouring properties. The trick is to embrace the shade, rather than fight it!
