Everything is looking awesome, Rick!!! I especially love the Maurelli!!! She is huge... Sure hope you have some good luck with overwintering her... I had a couple of oleanders growing in large pots that overwintered with no problem in my unheated garage. I am not up to speed with the different varieties, so I cannot comment on if mine was the same as the one you have, but it sure looks like it. Most winters they did fine with no damage at all, but last winter they did get burned a bit. I cut them back and they came back strong. The only thing I didn't like about them growing in pots was that I had them on either side of the steps going into the pool and the blooms would fall off and make a mess in the pool... DUH, I should've known that!!! Anyway, I replaced them with a couple of siam ruby nanners.
Need my palapa fix!!!! How is your new project going... Need to see your HARDSCAPE too!!! You da man!!!!
