Just a quick note to everyone... HGTV had an interesting show on last night -- "25 Biggest Landscape Mistakes".

If you missed it, you can get the tips at HGTV.com/landscapemistakes

Check it out, it's pretty insightful if you're just starting out or even if, like me, you already have an established landscape. I must admit, I'm guilty of at least 7 of them. We'll get into that later ...

Oops, I misidentified one of my grasses in a previous blog last week. The Maiden Grass I claimed grew to have 12-ft. plumes was actually Ravena Grass. Maiden Grass doesn't get bigger than 5-6 ft. I don't have any Maiden Grasses, but the Ravena Grass in full plumage is truly a sight to behold!

Here it is from a previous year's garden. It's the tall grass to the immediate right of the lighthouse.
