Here are some updated photos on the two areas shown above a little over a year after planting. These show the curbside area from the street side and from the house side.

These show the strip along the driveway from each end  and one from the side.

In July of this year I took out the 9 cvs that had formed a hedge in front of my porch for the past ten years. I replanted in mid-July so these new ones have been there about two months.

Erny your entire set up is looking great!  Wow the plants in your street planter have gained some good size since I last saw them.  Even the side planter along the driveway the plants look much better there too.  Very few people anywhere have such a vast spread of exotic hibiscus. 

Great work on your porch planter!  In a few years that is going to be something very special to behold.  And your take on the ruggedness of hibiscus root systems when 10 yrs old and being removed...

I've got to get on down there while the blooming is peaking...

Very, very nice Erny. Cindy and I are hoping to get over to see your garden in the next month or so. It's coming along great!
