And Speaking Of...

Now that we're talking about the garden... I've been thinking about what type of flowers and trees we'll have at our house.

Based on the computer image of our house (Photo 1), I would like to do something similar in the front with the hydrangeas (Photo 3) and maybe one of the other 2 plants (Photos 4 and 5)... But I think that overall I want resistant plants because I know I'm not 100% reliable to keep my plants alive... although, besides the fact that I like hydrangeas I used to have a plant in my house in TJ that proved to be VERY resistant, even when I didn't water it for weeks!!!

Then I would like to line the back of our lot, next to the fence with pines, I'm not sure if we should get fat ones (like on Photo 6) or skinny ones (like Photo 7).

Last but not least, I LOVE gardenias (I even used Estee Lauder's Beyond Paradaise, a gardenia based perfum as my wedding day perfum)!!! I was thinking about planting some in the back yard... But while writing this I thought that maybe I can plant some pots and put them on the deck, maybe I can get to enjoy them more right there by the kitchen.

Y hablando del jardin... He estado pensando en que tipo de flores y arboles voy a plantar en la casa.

En base a la imagen por computadora de nuestra casa (Foto 1), me gustaria hacer algo similar en el frente de la casa con hortensias (Foto 3) y tal vez con las otras 2 plantas (Fotos 4 y 5)... Pero creo que sobre todo, quiero plantas resistentes porque se que no son 100% confiable para mantener mis plantas vivas... aunque, ademas de que me gustan las hortensia tambien debo decir que tuve una planta en mi casa en Tijuana que demostro ser muy resistente a pesar de que yo no la regara durante semanas!!!

Luego me gustaria poner una hilera de pinos en la parte de atras de nuestro lote, no se si deba poner los pinos gorditos (como en la Foto 6) o los flacos (Foto 7).

Por ultimo, me ENCANTAN las gardenias (hasta use el perfume Beyond Paradaise de Estee Lauder el dia de mi boda)!!! Y estaba pensando en plantar unas en el patio trasero, pero mientras escribia esto se me ocurrio plantar algunas en macetas y ponerlas en la terraza, y tal vez asi pueda disfrutarlas mas si estan cerca de la cocina.
