Welcome Coop! Glad you found us.
Nice gardens. I have giant Aloe that would do well there. Are you in zone 9 or 10?
Look forward to seeing more.

Have a great garden day!

Thanks guys!! Crabber I'd love some aloe. Won't it burn in the direct sun?

Oh also I'm in zone 9 :)

They love full sun. Sometimes if they don't have enough water they trun a little pinkish but they do "very well" almost invasive in warm zones. They also put on an umbrella of pink flowers that the hummingbirds love. PM me an we can work out the details. ;) ( address and such)

That's what I was thinking. Less is more right?! ;)

Maybe a small bird bath or a pagoda statue. Who knows. I just love having a lil water feature. It even has LEDs in there! So peaceful :)

Awesome landscapes. I have massive Natural aloe-vera that would do well there. Are you in area 9 or 10? Look ahead to seeing more.
