LoL, the bananas are all up against the back part of the yard where the ground is lower . I still have not finished my "Winter clean up" for the plants and corms so I don't want to post any pics right now.

So what are you doing with all your free time now?

Just in case you are getting bored, I have a spot for a nice patio/sun room in my yard.


Seriously, great job!

My neighbour had a similar sun room done by a contractor. Now I am imposing on him
by fostering plants on him during the winter (don't let anybody do that to you ) for
hardiness testing. We live in HZ 6 and the sun room provides a more controlled
environment, than the wind and snow blown outdoors.

Good luck!
Olaf

Looks great. Florida must have some scary bugs. Everyone there seems to have giant screened in patios and swimming pools.

It depends on the stain and what really makes the difference is the conrete it self. Something like age, how much light or heat expose can make it look totally different.

I have seen blue/Aqua but NOTHING like that floor. It looks like such a deep blue. I am pretty sure this floor was polished first, then 2 - 3 colors were layed over it. That blue Looks REALLY good. I went with an Orange to help tone down the bright Teal wall.
