As you know, we have been re-doing the front flower bed of the house. After much planning, this is what we have so far. I am the proud owner of 5 winter gem boxwood shrubs (courtesy of Hines Nursery - thank you for distributing them to Home Depot for me Lauren) and two topiary shrubs. The name escapes me of what variety they are. I am working on getting a permanent landscape down that will grow and mature more each year. Look for more updates as we will be filling in the front with some colorful perennials and annuals.
I also planted two Hosta's in our shady wet area where nothing grows. Cross your fingers on these little guys.
This is my herb garden I have started after realizing fresh herbs are much too expensive to buy at the grocery store. I have Bob the Basil, Pam the Parsley, and Clive the Chive. Hopefully they will thrive!

Looks good. When are getting the other perinnials for the front? I am excited to see your layout in the present!
ReplyDeletePositively adorable! I hope all of the plants thrive in your yard and Hines appreciates your business, haha! Thanks very much for doing your part to keep me gainfully employed.
ReplyDeleteI hope your herbs do well, too. I have never had great success with them in the past because I don't have a cute window to keep them in anywhere and I am always scared the cat will eat them. She's the main reason we can't have nice things.
Make sure you check out the pictures I finally posted from the housewarming that you and Matt crossed the Sea of Pasadena to get to!
