Garden Chat at 718 Algregg
Please bring a folding chair and join us for our next Garden Chat. We will be meeting in Carolyn's backyard. She would like your advice
on what to plant in her garden. The Plant Spotlight will focus on native lantana. Of course, these are just topics to get the discussion
started on all things gardening.
2053 Cortlandt
Joanne and Ron Starbuck purchased their 1940 home in June of 2001. In fact, the photograph chosen for the listing shows
the azaleas in full bloom. While the azaleas are the showstopper in early Spring, the front and side gardens provide
year-round beauty.
Very large Sycamore and Chinese Tallow trees had to be removed several years ago due to age and
damage from Hurricane Beryl. Joanne requested that the city not grind the Sycamore stumps so they could be used as planters.
They are now home to Texas Red Yuccas. The trees that were removed provided quite a bit of shade. Due to the loss of shade,
it's been necessary to move some plants to shadier areas.
Over 90% of the plantings in the front and side gardens are perennials and include Brazilian Button Bush, Pigeon Berry,
Katie Ruella, Gardenias, Milkweed, Firecracker bushes, Easter Lilies, Rangoon Creeper, Ligularia, Phlox, Agapanthus,
Camellias, Hibiscus and Hydrangeas, as well as a variety of butterfly-attracting annuals.
