I know you have seen a pic of my gazebo but I wanted to post more pics of the whole area. This is the upper back yard. I would call this area my Relaxing and Entertaining Room. The Gazebo & pool are right there with the horseshoe pits, grassy area for volleyball or boccie ball, fire pit and grill. The brick patio around the house is close with more seating and a chiminea for more quiet intimate evenings. There are two water features and the bird feeders. A wonderful spot to sit read, listen to the sounds of the water and watch the birds. I have been working on expanding the gardens in this area but haven't expanded too much as there are more plans for this area that will require some heavy equipment to possibly move thru.
So here is a pic of the gazebo. The Gazebo was recently replaced as the old one was damaged in a storm a few weeks ago.

There are Port Odora EE's planted in each corner bed. They will be much bigger by the end of summer.

Some of the house plants will spend their summer out on the shelves of the gazebo. There are passionflowers, blushing susie vine and mandivillia vine growing up the corner supports.

I just picked up new curtains for the gazebo but I haven't had time to get them hung up and see how they look. I will post another pic after I get them hung if I like them.
Life is Great! Holly
