My house has changed after 5 years on this forum…. It’s a jungle out there. (After many holes dug, a truckload of fertilizer and mulch, and a zillion gallons of water) Thanks for all the assistance.

    Oops…. Wrong area. Please move to general discussion mods. Apparently I’m still learning how to work the forum.

    Beautiful work. What’s sad is that if you sold the house, the new owners would likely tear it all out.

    A lot has changed, even the colour of your car has changed!

    I can see the love you have for gardening!

    Yup. They’ll bulldoze it back to a barren wasteland. But for now, it’s alive.

    They even showed up and painted my car!

    Great effort, and 5 years worth of growth that we can only dream of in more heat deprived climates!

    Is the garden full now, or do you still have some room out the back to play with?

    I thought the green was a fully matured car about to flower and red the juvenile stage! 😂

    Not much room out front anymore. Will just be plugging in bromeliads, coonties, and small shrubs here or there over time.

    The back needs a ton of work next, but it’s a small area of free space back there. I can’t deal with anything that isn’t very hardy for the area back there, so I’ll probably get a few Natives and Cuban palms, and tons of rocks. The entire back and pool area need a total gut job.
