OCTOBER YARD OF THE MONTH
Some of the most interesting plants at 3901 El Campo Ave. are along the side of the home.
Brian Bohl and Thad Blizzard moved into 3901 El Campo Avenue in 2013 when it was a brand new home with nothing but a line of mature hackberry trees across the front. Since then, they’ve filled in the empty spaces with attractive low maintenance, drought resistant perennials. One of their favorites is a large agave that survived last February’s cold snap with minimal protection. They also enjoy the needle palm and a leopard plant that blooms every January. They regularly shop Archie’s, Mike’s, and the clearance rack at Lowe’s, with occasional day trips to Dallas nurseries.
Brian and Thad will have fun using their $25 Archie’s Gardenland gift certificate and their free annual AHNA membership, both compliments of AHNA. If you would like to nominate a yard, even your own, please send your address to president@arlingtonheightsna.com.
