PsychoBob 0 #1 August 10, 2006 The other day there was a thread about yardwork and quite a few people, including myself, expressed their enjoyment of gardening/landscape. It has taken me 2 years to get my yard back to normal after Hurricanes Ivan, Dennis and Katrina. It's a lot of work but it's also relaxing and rewarding. If you have any pics of your landscape post'em. I might get some "new" ideas.Here's a few pics of my remodeled backyard."I'm not a gynecologist but I will take a look at it" RB #1295, Smokey Sister #1, HellFish #658, Dirty Sanchez #194, Muff Brothers #3834, POPS #9614, Orfun Foster-Parent?"

NWFlyer 2 #7 August 10, 2006 I've seen it in person and I can certainly vouch that the PsychoBackyard is quite lovely. Here's a photo of my patio (the "urban oasis") though, as I stated in the other thread, I have little to do with its upkeep and maintenance other than to respond "Yep, that looks great" when my neighbor-landscapers ask me if I like something. This view is from two stories up, from the deck off my home office."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLFXpert 0 #21 August 10, 2006 I love Ruellas. They bloom almost year around and are pretty hearty.The ones I have look like this (first thing I found on Google): http://www.ubcbotanicalgarden.org/forums/showthread.php?t=6388 But I have a few exotics, that admitedly, I don't even know what they are. The Hawaiian I bought my house from imported them or something. He walked me around and explained how to care for them. None of them are difficult. But, thankfully he explained them b/c one looks like a blank stick in the ground in the off season and I would have dug it up and tossed it.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

NWFlyer 2 #23 August 10, 2006 Quote I like it. It reminds me of those cool patio's in New Orleans. Thanks! Although I can't take credit for the landscaping, I can take credit for the patio itself ... that was several weekend days of heavy lifting a few summers back. Worth every bit of effort, though! Since it's between buildings it doesn't get enough consistent sun (hush, no jokes about it being in Seattle!) to keep grass alive anyway. Fortunately my neighbors are whizzes at figuring out what plants will thrive there. It's open for drinks pretty much any nice evening ... and if you're lucky my other neighbor will make slushy vodka drinks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
