Please let me warn you ahead of time! This video is a little choppy and fast paced. I had to add the music to cover up my breathing as I walk.
I used my iPhone to shoot the video, Nero to edit. I tagged what I could at this pace; some things are left out, sorry!
Everything you see in my yard has been in the ground less than four years, most of which came out of three gallon pots or less! We moved in the house in August of 2008 and started planting almost immediately. As you can see I have left as much grass as I could and tried to maintain a landscape appearance incorporating heliconia, plumeria, turmeric, ginger, and other flowering plants. The property is a little over a third of an acre and I have planted out the following.
