Landscaping

Although we have done far more work (and spent much more money) on the garden than we originally intended, we do not regret it. The stone patio makes all the difference in the world, and I cannot wait to see the lawn.

Of course, to properly complete the garden, we must now decide upon what plants and shrubbery to plant. During our last trip, the landscaper brought a number of samples for us to see and choose from.

Unfortunately, our indispensable project manager / interpreter was not there when we discussed the options with the landscaper, and my Italian remains pretty rudimentary despite all of the lessons, so we're not really sure exactly what we chose in the end.

I'm sure we did get across that we wanted red and white flowers, and we're pretty sure about the shrubbery and hedges, but we will wait with great anticipation to see what we actually get.
