The sheperds hooks with the planters and solar lights are cemented into the ground and will never come out! Might as well do it the right way the first time. You can't really tell from the picture, but the flagstone actually rises up to the deck, so its not such a big step up. I think the flowers on my planters are dead. I still need to get something for the big, blue planters on the bottom, but I'm waiting until the fall - the Phoenix sun will kill anything before then.
The Flagstone leading to the grill.
The northeast corner of the yard - pardon the wood pallet and garden tools still laying out. My little orange tree is doing well, but the taller lemon tree is struggling. The cobblestone patio still looks great, and hasn't fallen apart yet - not bad for my first patio.
I hate the hard water in Arizona. No matter how many times I wash off the deck with the garden hose, it always leaves a whitish residue behind.
I still need to order a few more tons of rock for the sides of the house and by the air conditioner.

Very impressive Kissyfur! If we had a yard, I'd have you come do ours, too.
nice work. maybe you should consider more drought-resistant plants - your back yard would look even better with more greenstuff. i wish you could come help us with our new house...
Looks great! Backyards can be big projects. I love your fruit trees! How funny in the middle of rocks. Hope you are doing well.
