Yep...my nutsy neighbor up in front on the road has this looong bank along the road ( narrow road and the road is entirely on our sides of the properties). I want soo badly to plant that bank. I've taken her 5 gallon pots of Mexican Bush sage and Purple Fountain grasses and she's thrilled, but doesn't really know what to do with them. I tried to hint that we could do some really great planting on that bank, make the road such a showplace, but her response is that her water is hard to reach over there. I'm dying here...I have everything we'd need to do that bank. It's not really her fault that she's such a basket case. She's 64 and ADD and her life is a shambles and the property is a shambles. I'd have to drag hoses waaaay up our drive and waaay down the road to water it.....but I'm thinking about it...plant in the Fall..natives, Matilijas...echiums...we'll see.
I could be wrong...
