In late April, early May we completed Phase 1 of our landscape project. John finished all the rock walls and we put in the plants. The rainy season starts in early May so the timing was great as we didn't have to manually water. We left for our vacation on May 24th knowing that everything would grow in our absence. "After" pictures will be posted eventually. We were very impressed by the growth of our plants. In fact, I had planted a weed on purpose (milk star) as I really like the flower; however our gardener pulled it out in our absence! I was shading it initially (see front of house picture with the white bag shade structure). Anyway, weeds aren't ever hard to come by so I put in another when I returned!
In the back we planted bougainvillea along the top planter and wow did they ever catch nicely; wait till you see the August pictures. We also put in our sod which is like a golf grass so it doesn't need mowing - wonderful!
