I am just proud I finally know how to spell it! ?
One view close up, and a second with a little perspective, showing that the shrubs have been repeatedly pruned back to keep then from overwhelming the little house and blocking the windows.

Beautiful plant wish I could grow them here, every so often it is just too cold. PS. You spell it with an "I" and the a "T".
@Fernapple I spell it just as it is spelled. Had to look it up. ?
Gorgeous! When I moved from Indiana to Texas back in the 80's I remember having to learn how to grow things down here since the climate was so different and was so excited that I could have roses almost year round.

OH, me too! Only for me, I had learned to garden in the mild, English-like climate of the Puget Sound area of Washington state, then moved to the Gulf South. Huge adjustment in many ways, certainly including gardening. I don't like Kale or Okra or Eggplant, which seem to be what everyone can grow down here, lol.
@MikeInBatonRouge I'm with you on Okra, LOL but I do like Kale and Eggplant.
@Redheadedgammy congrats? ?
If you see an "at FEMA Camp" tag, that is an error. I thought I got rid of it, lol
