Planting

Today was a good day - felt like I got a lot done - planted the Indian Hawthorns around the pool - had an inspiration and I'm going to put Red Leaf Cannas behind. Also put in the Dwarf Bald Cypress, Variegated Boxwood, Alberta Spruce and Midnight Hydrangea. They will look good with the Purple Leaf Cordylines and the Acanthopanax.

In the cutouts in the Bermuda lawn I'm going to do 3 purple Loropetalums with light green in front and then 3 Gardenias with Barberry in front. Maybe some green loropetalums in between. (Modified to green Loropetalums at the ends and water-loving plants in between. Barberry may become Purple Pixie Loropetalum.)
