$60 Japanese Maple

Dsc 0001-35By now, you should all know that I am somewhat of a Craigslist junkie. I have to admit it is mostly out of necessity, as that is the only way we can afford to landscape and furnish our house affordably. I was lucky enough to come across this Japanese Maple a while ago for only $60. That's a great deal, and we had been wanting a japanese maple for a while now so I couldn't resist. The only catch was, I had to go and dig it up. Luckily for me, it had only been planted the year before, and most of the roots hadn't strayed far from the original root ball. We have had it in the ground for about a month now, and I am happy to say it likes it's new home. So do we.

Please excuse me while I pay some bills...
