Your garden looks fabulous. Good selection of plants. The lawn just lifts up the whole garden and is a great contrast to your front facade. Must be so pretty and night with the lights and the white flowers. Btw whats the plant that flowers white by your front window? and the grass with purple flowers on the side of driveway? the others are gardenia's right. Reminds me i have to update my thread and add some garden photos. Still havnt done anything to my front garden.Not sure what plant will go with the Negra? Well we too have a bit of issue with one of our sliding doors which is a bit difficult to slide open, we were told it is due to having extra large doors and after using more often it will open more smoothly. Re: n&n02 - Stacker door issues 508Nov 11, 2010 12:28 pm Deemaree Grrr...what a tosser of a builder! Lex Wonder what would Trend say if you ask them about rollers and what difference does it make (if any). Hmmm, that is really interesting... The Trend guy didn't mention anything though and he seemed to think it was the norm to fit those Re: n&n02 - Stacker door issues 510Nov 11, 2010 12:46 pm 2pais Wow just caught up with your thread N.

Thanks 2pais!! I think the white ones near the front windows are agapanthas and same with the purple ones . I'll have to check on that plant schedule thing they gave us. The gardenias smell so pretty too Yes, would love to see more of your house photos - so post away . I have to update some of my internal house photos now that things are in more order. Hmmm, would probably look into your sliding door a bit more. Have you had any maintenance periods with your builder? We get one only at 6 months. How have you found your builder post-handover? Re: n&n02 - Stacker door issues 511Nov 11, 2010 2:09 pm brb_654 Gorgeous, well done!! I can't believe we got keys at the same time and you have a front garden Thanks barb! I think I posted in an earlier comment that this was done through the developer as part of a package thing when we purchased our land. We would be no where near finished if we had to do it ourselves . Re: n&n02 - Stacker door issues 512Nov 11, 2010 2:51 pm n&n02 Thanks barb!

Re: n&n02 - Stacker door issues 516Dec 09, 2010 12:03 pm Gorgeous house you have!! I came across your thread while searching for colours to use with dune. Your colours are very complimenting and look great. Just wondering who you built with as your plan is quite different from many plans that I’ve come across. Re: n&n02 - Stacker door issues 517Dec 10, 2010 8:30 am 2pais We too have six months time frame. So far no problems. That's good news 2pais. BTW I like your fence painted . I'm currently nagging at DH to do some painting. Just mainly with the render - def needs another coat, the paint is super thin and our letterbox has concrete on it from the concretors so DH will need to re-paint that too.

Good luck with your colour selections Re: n&n02 - Stacker door issues 519Dec 15, 2010 7:51 pm I am relatively new to this so just found your thread & I just wanted to say that I absolutely love your house! Your layout is fantastic and I love your kitchen, the colours, facade, everything! You must be so happy and proud! I can only hope that our build will turn out as well as yours!
