    ... you've used one of the images as your avatar and you take a lot of pride in the job and rightly so, you've done a good job. Just thought it might have been your own property.

    sorry to bug you again, but if you do not mind,

    is the burgandy coloured hegding plant:loropetalum chinensis"china pink",if it is its a plant of great interest for me in design.Do you clip it back as well? do you adjust its ph,they are acid lovers, a great plant and tough,drought hardy,grows in shade/sun and will thrive around vigarous tree roots.I have used them as stds in a design in nz.have completed a design using them here in melbourne.
