Back to the garden:
#1--the center bed was created by DH and had potted plumeria trees.

#2-- golden yellow bamboo which are potted because can be very invasive.

This bed also serves as holding area for new potted plants. I am constantly dividing and propagating most especially succulents alocasia and colocasia. The hosta are seldom divided .
#3 same bed

# 4 landscaping around koi pond.

How and why the pond was constructed.
Many many years ago, out of the blue on a Friday after noon after work my left foot got extremely painful that i ended up in ER. I thought I had stress fracture but no fracture showed in x-ray.

To make story short I was placed on medical leave after seeing so many specialist. I ended up on a care of a Rheumatologist but negative for rheumatoid arthritis. I have a very rare inflammatory arthritis on 3rd and 4th toe om left foot.

'I was on enbrel which I was injecting myself and also some iv medication that was given at the office.
3 months after the diagnosis DH asked what he can do to make my life easier so I asked for a pond which i got .LOA was over a year.!!

I am still on medication a little chemo once a week which are tablets.
The Japanese maple was given by our 2 children while I was sick. It is so pretty.

# 5 more pond landscaping. I also have potted plumerias.

I hope I did not bore anyone.
