Re: Landscaping- questions about plants
^ I am not found of azalea…they only last a very short time 
love the japenese red maple!!
any maple tree is good…makes a great shade tree and has a beautiful canopy.
and my all time fav tree is the weeping willow. works well in areas where water collects. It soaks the water right up!
dalilas are nice…they come in an assortment of beautiful colors. I bought 2 stone outdoor vases and planted them in there…they grow nice and tall then they kinda fall over the vase (cant explain hope u understand). I places them on my front porch.
we also planted a row of evergreens (fast growers…cant remember the name)…makes a great privacy screen. We bought them @ 6 ft tall…they should be about 10-15 ft tall in 2-3 yrs…inshAllah. I love evergreens…looks delightful all year round.
