Yoshi

Our first landscape addition is home and ready to be planted!

Meet Yoshi, our Yoshino Cherry Tree:


Since we live in the DC area, we were thrilled when the landscape designer recommended a cherry tree to give us some shade in the front yard.  While I was at Lowe's buying bath hardware today, I found the exact variety of cherry tree that was recommended for our yard!

I called J and he was so excited that he came to the store right away and rented a truck to bring the tree home.  (Side note: it only costs $19 to rent a truck at Lowe's for 75 minutes - what a deal!).

Driving the tree home tested my nerves a little, especially when we drove under power lines and low tree branches.



But Yoshi made it home safely!


I think he likes our yard already.
