October brought a new next door neighbor. I was warned by her son./ contractor that she wanted an easy care garden . Came home to a shockingly (where once there were trees and shrubs) very open and exposed boarder line. They had a huge digger and just chomped out everything. I was pleased to see the Vinca , Ivy Black berry Night shade etc, etc ...GO !
I hope they put up a very high fence , I don't like seeing the blue house.
Once I was over the shock , I started thinking about changing my side . I'll have shade if they put up a good wooden fence . |
Is that lovely plant in last photo a Nicotiana? Fingers crossed you get your fence soon.
ReplyDeleteYes it is 'langsdorfii'
DeleteTwo options 1. Put up your own fence or plant obscuring equivalent 2. Make your view unpalatable to her house. I have a really ugly tire sculpture or something very sexual in mind - easily removable but an irritant.
ReplyDeletePS I really hope that the blue changes to a nicer color.
I do have my white truck and a big blue yard debris bin parked .
DeleteI feel your pain! Twice something similar happened to us. While they may build a fence it's always nice to have some view blocking control on your own property too.
ReplyDeleteIt's always a shock to come to such a drastic change ! But I am looking forward to making some changes.
DeleteSuch rich color in that first shot -- is it Hamamelis?
ReplyDeleteYes , It's Diane' or is it 'Diana' anyway she is smaller than the others. Nice red blooms.
