Last night before the storm hit I put the finishing touches on this section of my backyard landscaping project. I am pretty excited about it for a number of reasons but mainly just because it looks nice.
I am not generally all that great and coming up with landscaping arrangements and ideas, so I will credit mom with telling me where I should put the plants. I basically just went to the store and picked out some things I liked and decided later where to put them. I tend to prefer plants that are green year round… which is why about 75% of the things I planted are dwarf conifers of various types.
The biggest dilemma was the lightning. I wanted to use solar, mainly because i like the idea of it… but I don’t really care for the blueish light that most solar fixtures give off. So I’m working on a way to power these normal low-voltage fixtures with solar and I don’t think it will be very hard… that will be a “how-to” project for another post!


Looks really good!
Nice work Ryan, it looks awesome.
