As in, "There's a bunch of green stuff already growing. Why do we need different green stuff?" Plus I'm in favor of tropical. But that's okay, because The-Guy says he's thinking of putting in birds of paradise. :-) That's one thing I love about Houston - you can have these gorgeous, majestic oaks growing right next beautiful palm trees, growing right next to all types of everything. It's because we have no zoning... (kidding!)<br /><br />Thanks Jillene! It's so funny - I did yet another double take when I saw your name. I was like, "I didn't think I left a comment on my blog today?"<br /><br />Ricardo - He is that. I love that.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10439582294571462742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29122639.post-6001500858027258852009-06-16T17:44:33.296-05:002009-06-16T17:44:33.296-05:00You know, the whole place is looking pretty nice. ...You know, the whole place is looking pretty nice.

He always panics when I get into the garden. I have a slash and burn mentality. But hey! If you wanna make an omelette you have to crack a few eggs! I'm sure something lovely will rise up in place of ginger and stuff. It just may not be until 2012.Arizaphalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11402602175460446158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29122639.post-89284704135045559382009-06-15T10:05:02.598-05:002009-06-15T10:05:02.598-05:00I'm very jealous of that swimming pool.I'm very jealous of that swimming pool.ALFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14009691278000970203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29122639.post-8329045109460039242009-06-15T06:24:10.228-05:002009-06-15T06:24:10.228-05:00Lara - Yeah, and others of us are willing to settl...Lara - Yeah, and others of us are willing to settle for grass and whatever the heck will live in the Texas heat without being watered.
