The story:

About a two months ago our wee landscaping company landed a nice contract. Jim Walter Homes http://www.jimwalterhomes.com/ out of Tampa Fla. is building a subdivision in the next town and DH landed the contract to landscape all 300 houses. They never told us that a commercail was going to be shot at one of the houses until last week. Everything had to be perfect. The newly laid sod was dormant and they wanted it green. DH sprayed the grass green with a specail turf paint. All the dormant trees we planted had to be taken up for the shoot and in went evergreen trees. Thirteen flats of color went in the flower bed in the front. We had a limited buget from them to work with and an instant established landscape was achieved. After the shooting today, everything was pulled up and the dormant stuff was put back in. The commercial is going to be aired nation wide. Our landscape work will be in it. Neat huh! It was a very interesting day.
