Yard of the Month 2024
The Yard of the Month selected for April is Linda and Carl Glaw’s home at 15518 Walkwood Drive. The Glaw's home has had a major update to the exterior and completely new landscape installed in the recent past. The foundation plantings includes roses and azaleas for year round color, flax and agapanthus for perennial flowers, and a large display of dianthus for sparkling color. A large flower laden magnolia tree graces the front along with an elegant house number plaque. Overall, the yard is consistently and immaculately maintained and is a beautiful home in Memorial Thicket.

Yard of the month belongs to Teresa Caraway at 15511 Old Stone Trail. She recently remodeled the front of the house to expand and 'open up' the porch and entry. Teresa has two majestic crepe myrtle trees framing the steps and short pillars. The shallow dishes are filled with permanent boxwood plants with seasonal plants added for color. The yard is segmented with borders of tall mondo grass. Azaleas provide an additional pop of color. Teresa has added door decorations and chair cushions with pink cowboy boots to celebrate the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
When Teresa answered the door, she was entertaining her 3 and 6 year old granddaughters who were in their Easter dresses for the arrival of the Memorial Thicket Bunny. They made a perfect addition to the spring theme of the yard. The deep green grass with the style of the home conveys a sense of calm and hospitality. Please join us in congratulating Teresa on this award.
