It's pretty simple. We just weren't happy in Florida so we left. Although I did eat some pretty good mangos while there from a friends tree. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70409-waytogo.gif[/img]

Florida over New Jersey b/c we liked the weather in Florida better. Although my husband is quite smitten with 2 of New Jersey's finest boardites [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif[/img]

I am not sure I understand your question about landscaping the backyard. Do you mean our old house? Did we fix up that yard b/c we knew we were going to move? If so, the answer is no, we fixed that yard up b/c when we bought the house the backyard was full of dog poo and weeds and we wanted something nicer to look at.

I am leaning more and more towards thinning it out and cutting it back from the yard. It is a jumbled mess b/c it pretty much continues like that around the entire yard, trees, and down the driveway. I do think a vine party is in order. Anyone interested? </div></div> a dont tink so, unless is a fellow gardener..[img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/704555_dwl.gif[/img] and yes u sister is very right. once u have vinca, u will alway have vinca. dem is very invasive..
as fe de thinning out, dat is all u can do, but be encouraged, as it going to be at least two years rest, before u haffe start de hauling and de digging out again..
Me inherit my vinca too...but fe me contained betwix the cement walk and the house. the sinting cant grow pass dat, even doe sometimes, it a try grow over me front door..[img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70400-talktohand.gif[/img]..[img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/704555_dwl.gif[/img] </div></div>


Ugh. I like that it prevents weeds but jeez! I am hoping the yard only looks the way it does b/c the house has been vacant for so long and not b/c the plants that are in the gardens are totally unmanageable.
