I had the house painted. Last time painted was 22 years ago. Also removed the faux rock and installed wood siding for a more modern look.
To make it easy for the workers, I removed almost all of the plants.
The three green plants under the window are correa pulchella, pink eyre.
All of the plants are drought tolerant and most of them are shade loving plants.
This area gets only morning sun.
Just waiting for my free wood chips to be delivered so that I can finish the beds with a good layer of chips.
