I'm waiting for a big idea how to landscape but I'm not coming up with anything but a feeling..
anybody know about xeriscaping with fruiting, floral, lush smallish trees and plants?
Know a company that does that?
And Can I do that in TV? Are there guidelines, or is there a wizard somewhere who makes it up when you bring Dorothy's broom?

I've read there are rules in The Villages as to how much grass you have to have in your yard in The Villages, making xeriscapingin it's truest form problematic.

I completely understand how you feel about palms... But for us from the Midwest... We LOVE them! They are new to us. Like the palms in Florida we have lived with shrubs and evergreens. I couldn't wait to get down here to plant palms. And for me... They all look different. So.... just bare with us while we plant our palms. Maybe in a few years will will grow tired of them and plant the shrubs again. Ha!


I have some friends in Laural Manor of Lake Sumter who have beautiful English Gardens.... Oh so beautiful. But I know they spend a lot of time to make them look like they just came up like that. I don't have the talent or time.

I would love to see pictures of your landscaping when you have completed it. I'm sure it will be beautiful!
