Lots ...Looks like Texas by the size of that Yucca. Lots of people are planting those especially at shopping centers with big rocks instead of bark mulch. This is what they call zero-scaping (instead of landscaping) they don't have to worry about pulling weeds or watering very much, it's suppose to be good for water conservation and time saving, I think it looks damn right awful. Too spiky and hard, nope, not for me, sorry. I want lots of those purple flower trees when I come to OZ and lots of agapanthas and lavender with boxwoods of course. Jboy is talking more and more about the move, he is ready do get the hell out of here:) Love, HeidiHeidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11680833947224398852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-491954087258246123.post-22098155956798268152012-11-20T07:02:44.648+10:302012-11-20T07:02:44.648+10:30Good gracious they are all bursting with health an...Good gracious they are all bursting with health and vigour.

I was in The Conservatory the other day on Unley Road and found two identical, but alive, the same size for $995. I nursed mine from a tiny size to their previous glory for 17 years.

They're so valuable that when people plant them in Melbourne, they're often stolen the next morning. There must be a huge racket in English Box? ("Yeah mate, gimme 10 of those green, hedgy things. Got a client in Toorak who wants a cheap delivery...") MOTH could make a fortune on them and tell Son #5 they all died. Then you could go to Paris and have a 2nd honeymoon. xxJanelle McCullochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16006727386237836016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-491954087258246123.post-87058048573956670002012-11-17T19:36:38.735+10:302012-11-17T19:36:38.735+10:30I am with you Millie...I think the Yucca's mig...I am with you Millie...I think the Yucca's might need a new home..sorry MOTH!<br />xxJeanne Henriqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07986759909478180763noreply@blogger.com
