okay i figured out the right size! yay me time for more pics!, lol

okay now these are the hedges that i trimmed i guess they werent low enough but i wanted to get them higher but i guess my brother didn't want it like that and neither did my parents so this is wat they look like when my bro got through...



this is the front of the house, its dark outside because we were expecting rain but didn't get it...sweet peas are sprouting up their going up the treelliss when they get bigger...



a part of a bush... I have no clue what its called but i know my grandmas are really big and nice


another part of the yard connected to te trellis area

( i know the bushes look crappy ive treid diff things but nothings worked...)

I know it looks like i have a lot of rocks in the yard BUT I DON'T ITS CLUMPS OF SAND BECAUSE I CHECKED! HAHA
a close up of the bauhinia by the back porch



okay this is the circle with a bauhinia start in the middle its off the other it already had roots, the leaves died off i guess from transplant shock but i think it will sprout soon
.
and it is a perfect circle its just that i dont have the edging in yet and theres dirt on some of the grass which made it looks non perfect, lol
and all that other stuff is ant killer i dug up this around a huge ant hill and my toes are really bit


a close up of the stick, lol i have bearded iris bulbs around it...

okay thats enough pictures!, i know i was snaphappy!!!! but i am going to do more digging...

toposh! It's nice seeing all the pics of your yard!

It's also nice to see a young person so into gardening...one who cares about plants and landscaping.

Does it rain a lot there or do you have to water?

Great pics of your yard Toposh.

Is the grey ground from clay? We don't have clay here.

Great pictures. I don't know what the plants are but someone will show up with that info. I think sandy soil is good. I have red clay and everyone says to "add sand." I'll bet no one ever says "add clay."

Well yes and now believe it or not this sandy soil here actually does hold alot of water becuase when you dig down a ways it will be really moist... Ive only watred 2wice since ive put the things in and thats good.... and today it rained so im mad because i did water yesterday so i hope they don't get too muchh.... but yea its sandy soild, not clay just the top of the dirst gets dry and looks clumpy like rocks beneath it stays moist.... Then in a couple weeks when i take the plants from their try and plant them outside ill put mulch or rocks around them all, but i don't know so much with the rocks if ahurricane comes i dont want them to fly around and go through peoples windows and hurt someone.... so i think ill go with mulch...
