Thanks.

I've got three distinct areas around the driveway and up to the house. At the end of the driveway on the right, is the nautical theme. I have a cat sitting on top og the highest pole, with a rabbit on the second one. Each season or holiday, I have to come up with a new idea for the two to interact. There are yuccas and a palm around the pilings. At the street, I made a pad for the trash cans that has PT posts in each corner. Those will get the rope railing around them.

Going up the drive, the yuccas are the "row plant" with a windmill halfway in, but this year will get basjoos filling in between as well, for that tropical avenue look. In front of the house are the yuccas and some cycads on a mound. Prickly pear cacti are on the flat area surrounding. That's my desert biome.

The jungle is on the other side of the driveway, and I'm going for the Hawaiian look with that one.
