From the last posting I showed this bush from 6 inch sticks to almost full grown. Now it is blooming and the blooms last for weeks. Also, the most beautiful butterfly was getting some nectar from the blooms. We both enjoy all the wildlife we see here. We have had a coyote and javelina skirt the house. The roadrunner comes through looking for a lizard meal. The quail come by with their half grown babies. The deer come through once in awhile. So far the scary things like snakes and a gila monster have only been seen down by the pool area. I am sure the water attracts them. That is why we don't want a fountain in our yard. We have enough trouble with rodents getting under the house. These manufactured homes are set on top of a three or foot deep whole. The utilities are then run under the house.
We had our shed rebuilt. All of the siding and trim were taken off. The handyman that did the work posted it on facebook. He used it to advertise his business. I shared the photo on facebook and then put it on my page. He put all new siding and trim plus added flashing to the bottom so water doesn't pool at the base of the trim. Jim and I painted it all. We should not have anymore problems with rotting wood. This avoids another problem as well--- termites. They like wet wood.
