**★★★★★ — horsedonkey, July 2020**

## Community Q&A

**Q: Wood planter box.** *(in Photo Questions)*

I love the planter up against the wood clad wall. Did you put a liner in the box? If so, what kind?
Thx

A: Hi there - this isn't my work :) So I'm not sure. But it appears the planter is custom and affixed to the wood clad wall. I would assume it has landscape filter cloth interior.

**Q: What type of large tree is that on the left?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What type of large tree is that on the left?

A: Hi Lisa - thanks for reaching out. It's a japanese maple similar likely to this one: http://www.monrovia.com/plant-catalog/plants/2515/japanese-maple/ You can search "acer palmatum" at www.monrovia.com to view a list of various options. Cheers! Jenn

**Q: Where Did You Buy the Fire Pit?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Hi 

Could this fire pit also be connected to a house gas hook up?

Thanks 

Heather

A: Hi Heather! It is gas - sourced via Solus Decor here in Vancouver. Cheers, Jenn

**Q: Cool - I know this house!** *(in Photo Questions)*

I had a look at it when it was for sale. Great job.

A: thanks!
