Hello Mister (Landscaper that is)

I received the most wonderful gift for Mother's Day!  

 Mr. Beaux installed a Drip Irrigation system

 for our outside pots on Saturday.  

While I took Miss Beaux and a girlfriend shopping at the Plaza, he toiled over the installation. 

 Actually, he said that it was quite easy and he was so excited about how it came out that he wanted to do more in the backyard! 

In this picture you can see the hose running down the side of the pot.  We are going to try to secure it closer to the pot so that it doesn't show as much.  

He used the Mister Landscaper System from Lowes and although he didn't buy a kit like the one shown above this isn't a bad way to go.  The system hooks into your existing sprinklers (that's what we did) or you can hook it up to your outside faucet.  

Mr. Beaux bought 100 ft of coil and that was enough to run lines to three pots and two planters on the windowsills.  

He used 5 Adjustable Dripper Stakes

 that came with three couplers.

 See the little bubbler inside the pot?

  It's attached to a stake that you push into the soil. 

 The spray is adjustable by turning the sprayer and ours comes on automatically each morning with our sprinklers.  How great is that? 

 My worst fear is going on vacation and having all of our plants die!

 Here is the pot next to my new bench.  The line runs down and is buried under the dirt and mulch.  

The funny thing was that during the process he found a few stones that had been buried by mulch and dirt.  

OOpps!! 

Guess we will have to get out the power washer and clean those off!!!

Hope you all had a wonderfully splendid Mother's Day!!!  

Until Next Time,

Beaux R'eves,

XO Cindy
