Estrella family win Yard of the Month for August.

Fabiola Estrella and family have received the Vision 2020, Civic Pride Committee’s Yard of the Month August award, for their lovely & colorful yard at 1361 Waterford.

The family will have lived at this residence for 5 years on August 29th. When they arrived the yard had two large Queen palm trees, lawn, nandina bamboo along the front path, and a few plants in a large curved bed laid out with edging at the front of the house. The entire family, including children and grandparents have been involved in the maintenance & planting projects.

Their efforts have added great color to the yard with bronze flax, 6 King palm trees, red & white begonias & impatiens, petunias, dahlias, pansies, variegated society garlic and roses for the background.

Fabiola said the palm trees & roses are her favorites in the yard & people do stop & compliment them on the yard’s beauty.

They received an Otto & Son’s Nursery gift certificate for $25. Otto & Son’s Nursery have been generously supporting Civic Pride’s “yard of the month” award program for years and Civic Pride members definitely are seeing a lot of improvement & beautification going on as they search neighborhoods for the next award yard.
