Ahh... Landscaping

I went to Gerten's greenhouse yesterday with Jackie, who also has a green thumb but plenty more experience in that area. If you haven't been there you must go. It was amazing, they had quite the selection. I was getting ideas for our landscape designer. I am going with formal type tree yet more modern with grasses, magnolia trees, forsynthia etc. The colors we were thinking we are going for are red, white, and yellow. We are planning on painting the house a dark taupe this summer with white trim so it should all play in together very well.

I can't wait! I have to wait a whole week until I get back the drawings she comes up with. The bad thing is I am picking up my sugar maple this Friday and I have NO CLUE where to plant it. Arg. I'll post pictures of our awful landscaping that we currently have tomorrow
