My front yard (like every other piece of my property) was a sea of Plumeria trees until recently. A Royal Poinciana tree had gotten so big that it was shading the whole area and the Plumeria were not happy with all that shade... However, since the Poinciana is STUNNING when in bloom I decided it had earned the right to be here so I set about to redo that patch.

Some dwarf/compact type Plumeria will still reside on the edges of the patch, and I intend to place a lot of my variegated shrubs there since they are mostly happier with a touch of light shade anyway. In addition I have a few pieces of pottery etc. which I will use here.

My first question: I have this grouping of blue pots. Is the arrangements with three or five pieces more appealing?
