Pool build Vineland NJ

So you doing the bluestone? My cousins is all bluestone. Looks awesome with his super dark plaster.

Both of my porches are bluestone with limestone edging. I live in pa bluestone country. It’s everywhere.

Your landscaping border. The limelight’s. How high do u want them to get. Limelight’s explode each year and if u try to keep them low year after year they will get woody really quick. Mine would grow 4 plus feet each year. If u want to stay at anout the 5 foot height do little limes. If u are letting them go to 10 feet plus go regular limelight’s. Also if u hedge them be prepared for them to wood up quickly also. They don’t like to “hold hand”. Touch each other. I just ripped out all my regular limelight’s when I did my pool and I am now wrapping around the back of my pool and my entire house actually in little limes and even the new smaller version which is called bobo. They r my back row and my front row is all white daylilies. Vs your boxwoods. I like that look u r going for also.

Jimim I was thinking limelight’s for some privacy. My other thought is incrediball

 

[jimim]

If u want privacy limelight’s for sure. They get huge. Lol. I wouldn’t plant them on top of each other though. Like 8 foot on center. They will “hold hands” eventually lol. Will give u a hedged look without woofing up.

Incredible list awesome but tough. Deer love them. They will eat them to the ground. Incrediball grows new wood each year for thier blooms. Very very little blooms on old wood so it’s like starting over every year. Deff won’t give u privacy. You have to baby them. I had 6 before the pool. I had to wrap them and spray them to keep the deer from eating the new growth each year and if they ate it the plant is done forcthe year. I would only use them here or there as filler plants. Something for visual interest. For function like privacy limelight. Remember in winter it’s twigs so no privacy.

Incrediball’s blooms r nuts though. Like huge. It’s kinda impressive how they hold the weight. As said in the movie “so you married an ax-murderer”

“It’s like an orange on a tooth pick.” Lol

We are undecided on decking. Thinking we will be putting sod down

 

[kimkats]

I would at least put a "walkway" to the pool. Going one up from that I think you should put steppers/stepping stones/pavers/whatever you want to call them around the edge of the pool. That will give the kids a good walkway (who am I kidding-a RUNway LOL) around the pool. This will help keep *stuff* out of the pool. It will also be easier to mow without getting as much stuff in the pool if you don't have the grass right up to the coping.

And just like that. I came home and it’s DONE!

 

[jimim]
