The yard at five months!

I absolutely cannot believe the growth of some of the plants; sadly many have succumbed to the intense heat and met an untimely demise! We're already making plans to replant and/or try different plants. Tomato seeds have been ordered because oddly enough Fall seems to be a good time to plant fast growing ones.
There is a bougainvillea on one wall that we've pruned about 3 times now. The vine started out as a small plant and has reached the top of wall twice now. We'd like it to be a bit fuller so it's been topped.
