Japanese Maple

Finally!

Grass Or No Grass?

Contemplating on getting rid of my weedy grass completely off my backyard. However, the patio design still need to be kid friendly. I have to think about this a bit further.

First Season's Visit to Vandermeer Ajax

If you've never been to Vandermeer, try to go when you have at least 2 hours for your first visit. Try to leave your money as well but bring a pen and a pad. Trust me, if you don't, you'll go home broke and overwhelmed!

Note To Self

Plants such as azaleas and rhododendrons need acidic soils (below 6.0) to grow well. Clematis enjoys alkaline soil with a ph of more than 7.0.
