8th December 2009
It's been more than 5 months now after we started moving in. All this while, my wife and I have always been glancing at our empty and abandoned planter boxes, two at the front and one at the back. Of course it was clever of our architect to have it readily constructed, but seeing it barren is definitely not something anyone would wish for.
Finally, with the help of my good friend, Sateria, from Sat & Iza Landscaping we are now proud owners of functional planter boxes. We are satisfied with what we have for now, and future plans include adding small plants to cover the soil and perhaps use some pebbles too.
In addition to the plants, we have also installed some solar-powered garden lights that we bought from Australia last year. Another advantage of having filled planter boxes. I'll post more pictures of the lights soon since the instructions needs us to charge the batteries for at least 4 nights before it can function its best.

At the same time, I also instructed the workers to move the palm trees that I have planted a year ago on the adjoining land. Hehehe... apparently after more than a year, the trees seem to not have grown that much. I guess I have been unfair leaving the trees to survive on their own without much care and attention. Now that the trees are closer to the house, we'll definitely monitor their growth more often and hopefully the trees will strive and grow better.
In the afternoons, my wife and the kids also love to do some gardening works. My in-laws were very kind to give us some potted plants (for free!) and we are slowly developing a "greener" home.
