Hey hey!
I haven’t been blogging my way through the actual build of the new house for a myriad of reasons but it’s to the point of planning a landscape and I’m getting pretty darn excited.
Here’s a few things we’ll see in our yard pretty soon – and in full color next spring:

Also some lovely tall grasses, hydrangeas and some other fun stuff. What’s your favorite plant in your landscape? Anything I should know about planning one?
Got any good suggestions for a miniature tree near a house? Right now we’re considering the Bloodgood Japanese Maple but I’m not a huge fan of those kinds of little trees. I’d something less predictable. More worth it.
exciting! no suggestions for trees…but some friends of ours landscaped with low-bush blueberries and high-bush cranberries…which actually get pretty tall–could be the tree for your yard. š really pretty flowers and foliage (and fruit too!) http://www.rainyside.com/features/plant_gallery/shrubs/Viburnum_trilobum.html
Thank you!! I’m incorporating the lowbush blueberries, a bay leaf plant, some rosemary and peppermint. Couldn’t change Aaron’s mind on the Japanese Maple – so that stays š
