We are SOOOOOOOOOO times a million excited that you MAY be hanging up a shingle in Leesburg - so close to us!

I have to agree with you -- ...Gardens take time...<br /><br />I have to agree with you -- shrubs make a huge difference in a landscape. They offer a sense of structure, maturity and permanence. (rocks do the same thing)<br /><br />Over the years, I've replaced some of my perennials with shrubs. I'd say my gardens are almost half and half at this point. Ornamental grasses are good choices as well.<br /><br />Awesome playhouse! I really like the collection of leaves and acorns lined up on the wall studs.<br /><br />Since my yard is pretty much "done" in the way of design (I've lived in the same house for twelve years), I worked on changing out my big planter by the front door for Pure Project #16.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8030308239398272700.post-64299242284803368652010-09-13T16:45:16.381-04:002010-09-13T16:45:16.381-04:00I am always amazed how much a little landscaping c...I am always amazed how much a little landscaping can do.

I struggle with my outdoor spaces as I grew up in a perfect gardening climate and now live in a more unforgiving one. I think we have a great plan in place though and it's going to look A-mazing by the end of next month.
