Williamsburg Settlement Yard of the Month - July 2023
WILLIAMSBURG SETTLEMENT YARD OF THE MONTH
July Winner - Frank and Malynn Rodriguez of 22102 Vobe Court
July’s Yard of the Month winners are Frank and Malynn Rodriguez who live in a beautiful house on the corner of Vobe and Abby Aldrich. Growing up and being longtime residents of Katy, they have raised one son here and now have four grandsons.
As owners in the Settlement for 18 years, they love the neighborhood for its friendly community and tall mature trees. The Rodriguezes have performed most of the landscaping themselves, calling it a “labor of love.” However, Malynn is quick to note they could not have done it alone; Chris Henderson, a neighbor as well as an owner of a landscaping company, maintains and provides the Rodriguezes with guidance for their yard.
Malynn and Frank have learned through trial and error with many plants and currently have a yard that is more structured with a mix of aloe, boxwoods and a few evergreens with some pops of color from the society garlic, agapanthus and hibiscus. Of all the plants in their front yard, Malynn recommends growing agapanthus, since it can survive both the hot summers and cold winters. “When it’s blooming, it is just beautiful.”
Give a big congratulations to July’s YOM winners!!!
