The Side Planting Area Project
Back to 2005

For years I wanted to upgrade the planting area on the right side of the house, under the overhang.  This year I finally cleaned it up, using cedar planks as the edging.  I plan to plant grass on the bare spots tomorrow.


How it looked shortly after we moved here and had planted a few things, with large rocks as edging


Today!

Notice the fig tree in the rear corner, probably the only one in Greenville.  Our friends Barry and Kris Hollis gave it to before we left Santa Barbara, and every winter I cover the branches with foam pipe insulation so it won't freeze.
