kimberbee Posted April 21, 2016 Author Share Posted April 21, 2016 Nice video!! What are you using for flow in there? Stock pump and rw-4 on 2nd speed. I may add a small koralia somehow to boost flow behind the rocks, but I'd also want it somehow angled towards the sps rock too.... Link to comment
teenyreef Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Wowza!! So pretty! I love the scape and the new video too Link to comment
kimberbee Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 We worked outside pretty much the whole weekend. Saturday we cleaned out the garage and Sunday we cleaned up the yard. This is my blank canvas. I get to do whatever I want to the front, as long as I take care of it. I can't wait to start planting! Link to comment
Astinus Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 NICE! Look into some Peonies!! They are a Perennial and very pretty and they also smell quite pretty too. OH! The possibilities! EDIT: http://peonysenvy.com/peonycatalog.html Link to comment

EDIT: http://peonysenvy.com/peonycatalog.html My mom had peonies when I was a kid. I remember having to tie them up whenever they bloomed though or they would fall. I have a few ideas in mind... Hibiscus, lilies, some tall grasses maybe. My only restriction is no bushes. He removed about 20 bushes when he first moved in... Spider havens! Link to comment

However, there is no electrical out to the front, other than the porch light. I think I will stick to plants the first couple years and consider a small pond in the future. Link to comment

ReefWeeds Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 how about some hydrangeas? Link to comment
kimberbee Posted April 27, 2016 Author Share Posted April 27, 2016 how about some hydrangeas? I'm meh on hydrangeas. I'm thinking hibiscus, lilies, silver mound, and some sort of phlox I found that comes as a little bush with pink and white flowers. I kind of want a flowering small tree, but I'm not sure what my options would be. Purple leaf sand cherry looks cute, but it's more bush-y than tree-like. Link to comment

Not too short, not too tall! Thanks! Link to comment
kimberbee Posted April 27, 2016 Author Share Posted April 27, 2016 Oh. I wonder if there is a pretty vine-like flower that I can grow up the sides of the railings? It would have to be something that gets cut back every fall though. Otherwise it would look really overgrown and messy over the winter... Link to comment

This is my blank canvas. I get to do whatever I want to the front, as long as I take care of it. I can't wait to start planting! O wow, that would be so much fun. A vine like flower that is very pretty is Clematis. You shouldn't cut the vines down though. I like Astibe if the area gets any shade. Another nice perennial is Silvia and it attracts nectar insects. Thats not a good thing if you are alergic to bee stings however. Foxglove and blackeyed susans are nice bi-annuals. Link to comment
