Despite the almost constant rain for the best part of ten days in the UK our front garden is beginning to match the back garden.
What a shame I cannot grow blooms the likes of the Lisa's Botanicals with textures from NapalmArsenal (which I have filled my runtime with thanks to the present sale) in real life. Still the purple bee loving plant we planted a year or so ago has gone mad and can often be seen with ten or so bees visiting at any one time.

Thanks. Ours is one of the few in the street with any vegetation as most have had the whole of the front block paved, there are a couple with hedges but that is about it. We had our tarmac driveway dug up and block paving laid earlier this but, while we did have a slightly enlarged driveway and a path, we wanted to keep at least 50% as garden. We both feel it is nice to have a some greenery or splash of colour when you leave home and again when you return, sort of seems inviting. The tree, a miniature pear tree, is about twenty years old and we pay to have it pruned each year. They guys do a great job and during the summer it has a lovely shape looking very much like a giant mushroom. The only downside the mess in the autumn when the leaves drop, still it is only for about month and easily dealt with using a leaf blower.

Trees in general are not very common sight in gardens here and the pear trees even less so. I will have to remember to post another picture in a few months time when it starts to grow the fruit it really is a miniature pear often less than and inch in size. Before that we have masses of white flowers similar to apple blossom.

We have a pear tree just at the border of our property...put there by the HOA. I thought it was just an ornamental tree, but the last couple of Autumns it has borne fruit. But the pears are small, no more than an inch or inch and a half. The American Robins loved them, though. I didn't know they ate anything other than worms and insects. They were all over this tree last September! And there were some deer that were coming by to eat cherries across the street, where the pond is. And I came home one night to find a deer with antlers under the pear tree. I loved it. He turned to look at me, as if to say, "Oh...it's you!" and then turned and mosied off.

Absolutely lovely.
I want a front yard like that!

Solar lights are tricky to grow. You have to have the right soil conditions, the right amount of sunlight, and a watering schedule that is usually not adequate for the other growing things in your yard.
