A Little Yardwork

I took a huge holly tree out of the yard a few months ago, mainly because Ireland kept running into it on the way into and out of the house, and it did not feel very friendly. So three weeks ago Ireland, Patrick and I took a trip to the nursery to find something to take it's place. We ended up with a Carolina Jasmine, with the intention that it will take over and grow up and around the column at the front of the house. Well, it has really taken off in the three weeks it has been in the ground, surely because of Ireland's constant desire to water it. She also goes to the window every morning and tells me that the plant has grown. It's our little project.
