Ok, I have since done a lot of work to the patio, although it doesnt appear like much. I should have some pictures for updates this week. The additions include a tree, some hyacinths, some lirope, some Globemaster Alliums, Plox, Naked Ladies (name??), a Balloon plant. If you notice, nowhere in there did I mention the moss between rocks.... thats because I had a minor setback. All of my mulch was washing down into the patio blocking out all sun to the moss and killing it. I have corrected (I think) that issue and you will see it in the pictures I post this week.

Hey, Vermont, Magnificent gardens with mature, healthy specimens. You have been hiding this for too long. Keep the pics coming. And thanks for giving us a peak. (I'm imagining you somewhere between Ben and Jerry's and Cook's Country!) Steve

Thanks for all the nice comments. I bought everything online except for the cabinets, granite and tile back back splash. The only issue I had was the first sink showed up in 2 pieces but I had no problem with HomePerfect in getting it replaced. The appliances are GE Monogram. I choose them because I could get a very good deal on them. My company has an EPP discount deal with GE. Plus I got them when they were running an extra 10% off sale. I got all the Monogram appliances through them but the big convection oven which I got off ebay. It was an "open box" but came very carefully packed. It was a terrific deal and I got an additional 8% back since I used MS Bing cash back. I'm hoping I don't have any quality issues with them. So far, so good. We like the induction cooktop, the counterdepth fridge, the hood and especially the Advantium oven. The sink is Blanco Silgranit Diamond Super Single. Much nicer than the old double bowl. So much space and easy to keep looking good. Really nice. The faucet is a Grohe Ladylux3 and the soap dispenser is Grohe as well. The disposal switch is a Waste King Fiber optic switch. A minor splurge, but seems to work well. Tempo Arlington stools. Custom cherry cabinets with natural finish. Love the trash/recycling in the island, the big drawers and the soft close hardware. Hardware is RH Chatham 4" and 6" pulls. Santa Cecilia dark granite with radius edge Honed Carerra subway tile backs plash with glass/marble accent. Lighting consists of: (6) Cree LR6 recessed led lights on a dimmer (1) Cree LR6 recessed led light over the sink (3) LBL 12V Onyx pendants over island on dimmer 24V led light strips below and above cabinets on dimmer I'm very happy with how the lighting came out. The coffee maker was a splurge. It's a Brewmatic BICA. I plumbed it into the filtered water off the back of the fridge. Even finding it at a great discount it was pricey. But, brews great coffee quickly and easily. Plus supplies hot water for tea as well. Seems very well made.

You've got a lot done since the enablers got ahold of you. Your plants look good, and that's a nice, little water feature. It made me start dreaming again about where I could fit one in. If you're entertaining guesses, I'd say # 19 is Fire & Ice. And #8 could be Mighty Mouse. Either of those names sound familiar? I agree with Babka, if you have a list, that would really help narrow it down.
