I'm going to keep them, despite the health hazard! ;))

The red flowers are the one I posted the other day, Sticki - Ixora. You can see that it's in need of a little TLC...

Im sure you'll soon whip that into shape. You have the welcome shade of the palms in this area too. Do you have any restriction on how much water you can use? Its a lovely area, cant wait to see what you do with it. Keep us posted.

It's so exciting folks! This is probably going to be a 'lawn' with borders. The trees are a godsend. You can really feel the drop in temperature when you go into the garden (and the itching as the sand flies attack!)

We have no water restrictions, Poppylover - but the water is on a meter...not too dear, tho'
