L❤ove his pondless falls, Im putting one in at the side of my patio. We had Bottlebrush bushes in my childhood yard and throughout the whole neighborhoods in SoCal. I plant Impatiens every year, love their color and effortless blooms. Methinks your Garden Tour Sundays will be a huge hit, and Bob's fab place is definitely a hit🎉. Thank you...
