  • We love this Walkway 1

Recycled parking lot into walkway

Mu husband and I located a business where parking lot was being chewed into oblivion and brought the pieces home and made a walkway. We even placed stone statue with under-lighting in the middle to memorialize our son. This is mostly in the shade bur sure would like to have blooming plants in the center. Along the walk we planted dwarf gardenias.

Gardening: I have a beautiful plumera in Central Florida. I have been told you can trim it and put trimmings in the ground.

Will they grow and any special handling?

Bathroom Makeover

This small bathroom that my two kids shared, was in desperate needed of atention!

But it had to be a makeover, I was not planning on changing major things! Bathtub, ...»

vanity, faucet, and counter had to stay. The main change had to be cosmetic! Since it was a pretty good functioning bath!

I began by updating the vanity with some left over paint from other projects plus some shelves! Next the bathtub got a special treatment with a cover! Paint, a shallow shelf behind the door, and accesories helped giving this bath a new look! I did all the proyects myself and you can do it too!

I like serviceberry!

My serviceberry is fruiting right now. I have to get there before the birds each day but enjoy eating handfuls of the little apple-tasting fruit. It's an excellent native tree: attractive flowers, tasty fruit and brilliant fall color!

  • Beautiful plants!
  • When Crepe Myrtles are finished blooming, if you cut off the dead flower spikes the will rebloom.
  • I purposely allow this Crepe Myrtle to cascade over the wrought iron fence.
  • I fertilize my Crepe Myrtles with Azaleas fertilizer and coffee grounds.
