Just a few of the things expert gardener Neil Sperry suggests for the last weekend in July:

• It’s prime time for planting cucumbers, crookneck and zucchini squash, bush green beans, and corn if you have room for a 20×20-ft. plot (required for good pollination).
• Annuals, including zinnias, marigolds and celosias for rich fall colors.
• New lawngrass from seed, sod, plugs or by hydromulching. Delaying much longer risks possibility of grass not being well established before winter.

Our single-family community, Ashland Square, is located in the historic Houston Heights.

The Wikipedia page offers some interesting history about the Heights, different from other histories I’ve read.

The page starts with who originally purchased the land and for how much, what a deal!

By 1891 millionaire Oscar Martin Carter and a group of investors established the Omaha and South Texas Land Company. The company purchased 1,756 acres (7.11 km2) of land and established infrastructure, including alleys, parks, schools, streets and utilities, worth $500,000 United States dollars.

Created some new photos by screen capturing scenes from our new 1104 Hackney Street, Houston TX single-family home video tour. A bit different from the current set and maybe these “stills” will inspire you to come visit us this weekend and tour the house!
