More Garden

I go to work each day not knowing what new things will be in the garden when I return home.  Sometimes it's plants that have grown and sometimes it's new additions to the garden.  This time I came home to evidence of Randy having made a trip to the nursery for more plants.  Not only that, the garden has now expanded outside the backyard.

Randy dug 3 holes and planted two red tip photinia and one pink crepe myrtle in the area to the right of the driveway.  The kids across the alley watched and one of them commented to Randy, "If you plant those bushes we can't play there."  Remember, this is our yard.  Randy respectfully, answered them, "I'm sorry about that, but this isn't a playground."  So proud of him.

My research says both trees are fast-growing.  The photinia can grow 3-4 feet in one season.  Both are beautiful plants.
