Roadside update

I planted hibiscus along the road at the front of the property some 12 years ago. They grew nicely for a few years and then began to look scraggly and deteriorate. Mealy bugs attacked them and several times I had to cut them back severely. They looked awful for several years and one day after getting tired of glaring at them every time I passed I decided to something about it.  So in 2009 with the assistance of my garden helper we dug them out!

I had several Christmas palms in pots and several frangipani pudica.



Voila! The results three years later with thirty nine palms and frangipani.
 A  prettier view for all who drive along this road.
