Places for Plants!


YIKES! Don't look!! This is an historic photo.

I repeat! historic! It is now filled with plants- palms, flowers, bushes, trees.
So keep reading to see her transformation.



Blue Keys haven just looked too stark to me....too much stone, not enough plants.


This is Florida after all. A place where tropical plants grow in front of your eyes- flowers bloom on a daily basis and basil grows like it was fed coffee!










In the center you can see the steps leading to SunBay Haven. When you walk out however, it was like walking into a void.







I like entrances to feel good- comforting -
ahhh, like you have arrived somewhere.

Good to know where you are going too.





The welcome/directional sign making went into production.
























So in went the welcome sign, palm and flowers at her base.











and the pergola for the orchids' garden got done.





















planters and fruit trees, herb garden,and vegetable patch. We were in full cement production!







The many plants we got all got planted!




It was more fun picking out the plants and marking where they have to go...












As you can see, one lovely guest is already trying it out!


It has been 6 months since these photos. When we planted them, they seemed big......now, looking at them here, they have grown beautifully!


Next will be passion flower vines.
