The weather on the Costa Blanca has quite an effect on 'gardens'. Plants do grow beautifully as the soil in most areas is rich, however the lack of rain means that things like grass tend to be brown for most of the year unless you keep it well watered and in this sunshine and heat that could make for a rather large water bill. Tiled or Paved gardens are by far the norm, they are neat and tidy, practical and don't need watering. For keen gardeners, we'd say, concentrate on the borders and forget a lawn. Also in the almost all-year-round heat - low maintenance gardens are there to be enjoyed from a sun lounger with a Gin & Tonic and a slice of lemon from your own lemon tree.
