Green Thumb

Brian and I experimented with our green thumbs and busted our buns planting and making improvements to the backyard this weekend. Below are some pictures of our hard work.


This is the BEFORE picture of our shaded corner.


This is the AFTER picture. We put in Endless Summer Hydrangeas, Japanese Painted Ferns and a Japanese Maple.


Sun Parasol Mandevilla.


Enlightened Hibiscus (a Bahama Bay Tropical Hybiscus).


This plant is extra special to me. The flowers resemble Blue Bonnets, which was my Mom's favorite. I couldn't have picked a better day to plant it than on Mother's Day. (The plant is a Serena Angelonia).


Our rose bushes were getting a little out of control, so we bought a trellis for each bush.
