Update on landscaping... still slowly ticking away on the front yard. We have completed one part of garden and started the rest in front of the house. Sticking with drought…

We are Lake Macquarie near Newcastle. Yes it would be in full sun half the day.
The soil is pretty compacted from building etc. No clay though. Was thinking of…

We have the space 1200 x 6300 pictured below, it's in between the pool fence and alfresco area.
We want to have some sort of garden there... obviously they need…

Yesterday I worked on painting the blocks under the pool fence. I used Rockcote Havana which is a gritty full textured product which looks like render. Really happy with the…

Update on the pool area. Hubby nearly finished the fencing which is looking fab!
Posts and alfresco posts just need coat of stain, custom fence panel needed up the end…

No they usually use that. I did query it beforehand though just to check!

Paving finished. Now need to tackle pool fence.
We are going to use merbau posts in between ironstone pool fencing to tie in with our alfresco

Yeah I don't think I'll get one like the photo but I would like them slightly bigger like the Magnolias were.
If u remember can u see what they are…

I know right, they are weird. I sent a Facebook msg last week, is your sale on and do you have any tuckeroo trees?? They sent back the sale is…

Have you found any in nurseries local to us? More established ones seem to be pricey but we need a descent size.

I have no idea... I'll google it saying they have seeds... I haven't seen these ones with any so maybe not??

I was wondering if anyone knew the name of this tree? They are commonly used to line the streets of new Estates...
Also if anyone has some suggestions of reasonable priced…

It will look great once all done. Slightly biased on the pavers... they will be perfect

That's sucks. Can u get the paint off?
We haven't unpacked them. The ones on top look ok though... so we'll see I guess.

Haven't seen Mic yet. Still busy, hopefully this week coming maybe?

I would of out out more but they are so oooo heavy lol. They will have fun laying them! Mick is hoping to do ours sometime next week so we'll…

Pavers arrived today. Think they are going to look awesome once laid
Should be happening next week. Will post a pic once completed!

I like Valley View out of those 3. It really suits your house colours.

They weren't too bad on rubbish. They left the pool empty boxes but neatly. We only had 2 guys though... u said u had quite a few?

Love it colour is perfect... wish we chose that one now!

Cat & I have our eye on a cream limestone at Warners Bay just seeing if we can get a bit of a better deal if we combine our order!

There was a little bit of leftover concrete that we got him to dump around the side as we need to build up the ground alot near our back roller…

Yay!! Hurrah for a hole in the ground

Pool surrounds poured today! Starting to look like a real pool now!

If it's Lee Rowan's, then it is just next door to Beverages. We looked there today. They have a white limestone which is similar but only sell it in 400…

Hahaha yes... we have dirt and a half finished planter letterbox. I am planning a paver and rock path to the front door, grass and a nice little garden.

Just nice green grass, some pretty plants & an awesome pool area
We will both get there one day! At least you have done your front yard...…

Good job guys! I just can't wait till there is nothing to do in our backyard lol

Yep Mick did it
Not long for you now! Checking out the limestone at Warners Bay tomorrow.
I'll take a pic.

Pool update! We have had the slab completed for the pumphouse/garden shed/toilet so now the pool installer can come back and connect the filter and see if everything is working…
