  - Beautiful tree. You had some nice trees to choose from and this was a good choice. - Krusty Apr 11, 07:10 3
    - They are more like berries. The birds like them. So that means we'll probably have pink bird shit on our cars all fall, heh. - kelly Apr 11, 07:12 2
      - Does it stay red most of the time or is it just a short period like with a cherry blossom? - Krusty Apr 11, 07:14 1
        
        From BHG online: "Foliage emerges purple, turns bronzy green in summer, and rounds out the season with mottled yellow, orange, and green tones. - kelly Apr 11, 07:18

  - that is beautiful! -- nm - Epiphany Apr 11, 07:07 4
    - Mine currently is small and pitiful looking and looks absolutely nothing like that one. Here's hoping we can keep it alive long enough to get results. - kelly Apr 11, 07:09 3
      - Good luck - you have inspired me for my future landscape - so I am curious to see how it all looks in a year - Epiphany Apr 11, 07:11 2
        
        Thanks. Next up is the back yard. I am waiting to have the raised garden built, but we're not doing that until we decide if we are hiring someone to - kelly Apr 11, 07:15 1
        
        you are correct - retaining walls are so damn pricey -- nm - Epiphany Apr 11, 07:24
but what about the hanging planters for the fence? -- nm - decline Apr 11, 07:00 3
- Oh! I got those too! Herb seeds are planted. I settled on the terra cotta - and it turns out they look okay. I can deal with the color. :) -- nm - kelly Apr 11, 07:06 2
  - awesome :). I'm planting my herb seeds this week too -- nm - decline Apr 11, 07:07
