Looks great Strick!! That's a beautiful backyard

You have as many plants as I do. How do you keep up with watering?
I used to spend about 1hr watering everything by hand.
I recently installed a custom irrigation system but the main line can only supply enough water for 9 mats. Still a big help though.

It's actually pretty small back there. I have a sprinkler system that hits everything in-ground. Water hose for the container stuff. Sometimes we are in the pool and make it rain with the water hose 😀😃🙂
