Those plants have been in pots for 5+ years now, awaiting the time when they can be planted in the ground (when we get to the landscaping phase of this project). So for now, they get hose watered regularly. And moved around to be out of the way as we encroach with the next phase of construction.

Update for the 4 of you that are looking:
Drywall going up today. Should be able to paint it by the weekend if the nice weather holds out here. Best part about this is that I"M NOT THE ONE HANGING OR FINISHING IT! These 2 guys had it all up yesterday, and taping/mudding it today. Couple of days from now it will be ready for paint.
Stucco starts next Monday.
Siding on the front will be a mix of cement board (James Hardie products) and on the patio side, some of the patina'd 1x6 lumber that came off the old garage structure as I tore it down. To give it a reminder of the old garage it replaced.
It's cold here (30 at night, 55 daytime high). That's not so cold where many of you all are from though. Winter is here for everyone in the northern hemisphere.
Onward!

Looking great. I hate drywall work. I don't mind hanging it but I won't tape and texture it.

Nice work. Is it insulated? I have a heat pump on my shop so I can work out there in the winter and summer. It's winter here in Tucson..........yesterday I woke up to 19 degrees, and it got to 56 in the afternoon. Of course, in the summer we can get down to the 70's at night, and 110/115 in the afternoon. The heat pump just makes the shop useable.

Yes buster...it's insulated (rockwool). This is my wifes garage, and she'll primarily park her car in there and store all her housewares/kitchen/entertaining and patio/party stuff. So not much time spent in that garage (not enough to put any kind of climate control in it). More pics coming soon. There's been alot of progress in the last week.

If she's like my wife it won't be big enough. Good luck.
