Almost done with our courtyard

The courtyard has been slowly coming together over the last few weeks. We started with the section closest to the door and worked our way to the gate. First working on the side next to the house and finishing with the fence side. We have been very lucky with getting plants. We bought a lot of them while they were on sale like getting 20 bulbs for $3 and our family has also given us a fair amount of flowers. 


I am so happy with how the house side has turned out! I debated for a while about what to put here and I am so happy that I went with the vine. It really has added a nice focal point for when you walk in.
We added a few moss rocks that we got from my grandparents ranch. I love them! They really add some character to the courtyard.  There are 2 on the each side, but there will be more tweaking.



We plan on adding one more to the fence side to give a little more balance since its such a long section. Also going to add a large one to the back section for a focal point. We have already picked up a few more rocks from the ranch we just have to figure out where each will go. Hopefully we can get that done this weekend.
