Photo - Pillar Wrap

This is a great way to add some counter space in small patios.  I love wrapping the posts with block and then covering the block with the stone facade.  The top is poured in place concrete with integrated color with a sanded finish.

This gorgeous perennial loves part shade, especially under palm trees.  Leopard plants can reach 3' wide and tall.  The Leopard Plant will produce beautiful yellow blossoms in the summer that reach 5' tall.
