The Meadowcreek Village Civic Club Recognizes the November 2018 Yard of the Month!
The owners (Judy and Terry Edge and Bill Portice) of 5323 Laurel Creek Drive moved in to their home in 1992. They have raised a child there that is studying computer science and Chinese at Trinity University. Judy Edge retired from Bonner Elementary; Terry Edge retired from Texas Petrochemical; and Bill Portice retired from Kirby Inland Marine (barges and tug boats. They all agree that Bill is the true winner of the Yard of the Month for November 2018. His choice of blue prostrate rosemary for a groundcover and bedding plant is excellent for this time of year. https://agrilifeextension.tamu.edu/browse/featured-solutions/gardening-landscaping/rosemary/
The lavish use of blooming and berry producing foxtale fern around the crepe myrtle and palm is fine focus on texture. The Meyer lemons will soon be ready for harvest. Please drive by to see the yard itself. The YOM sign will be in the yard until the end of November. We hope Bill, Terry, Judy and others will be at a MVCC meeting (December 13th) for all us to congratulate her efforts.
