St. Petersburg - Novice Landscaper - Any advice would be great!
Comments (5)I have a pipevine on my trellis and I really like it. It has nice large heart shaped leaves and climbes quickly, but is not too out of control. It goes up the trellis, but not out to other locations. It is the larval food for some Swallowtail butterflies, but they don't eat enough to make the vine look bad. Also it has a very unusual flower. Mine gets morning sun afternoon shade....See MoreReally need advice on choosing light bulbs that aren't dreary yel
Comments (1)I'm no interior decorator...but I don't like yellow light either. I like the GE reveal bulbs. It's clean clear light that filters out yellow light. Hope that helps....See MoreHave a blank wall for a climber & can't choose one.
Comments (6)Kittymoonbeam, I didn't find this out about MAC until after I had purchased her, but after reading more on her I think she's just too big for my property, I just don't have that kind of space... I really do like the idea of heritage or a pale shell pink and / or a white rose on this wall, mixed with the a soft blueish lavender clematis... Although I do love yellow & apricot .... Further up the path to the right of this bed there will be a lady Hillingdon climber on the section of wall behind my fireplace, so I can't decide if I like or dislike the idea having another climber of the same color family on that same wall, even though it is not right next to it.. Christopher, thanks for the advice! I just always see photos of crepuscule looking incredibly bushy, But I guess that is just how those people decided to grow it! If I can keep it within 3-4 feet of the wall, looking fairly neat then I might try that one, the photo on HMF of it at Mottisfont is beautiful, the good thing about crepuscule is that it grows fairly fast, at least this one has. I'm just torn on which color scheme I would rather have. Vesuve, thank you! I did think about having him wrap the trellis to the other side, the thig is that side of the house does not get much sun at all, until the late afternoon, so I don't know how happy a rose would be over on at side.. But I did want to wrap it at least a little just in case....See MoreAny advice would be appreciated! Exterior paint / Stone porch
Comments (46)Grover any chance you can show me what it would look like with no railing and pulling the left side of the steps a bit more to the left (towards the end of the window) i was just looking at greige color schemes and I’m feeling super over whelmed. looks like a darker warm brown with a light grey compliments and contrasts with each (went through your color schemes) so now im thinking... the silver traverntine for the top of the steps and the top of the porch with a more brown stack stone color for the pillar, and light post? Or should I reverse it? Make a darker slate for the top of the porch/steps and a lighter grey with warm tones for the stack stone? God... I’m going crazy...See MoreKnoxRose z7
