Re: Putting a pool in...
Yeah, I definitely think that's the way to go. We thought about buying more palms from HGC but decided for the really visual ones we wanted to spend money and get really nice ones. It seems to me that the smaller ones at HGC are worth the risk and are super cheap but their bigger ones never look as healthy.

Re: Putting a pool in...
Next time we're paying someone... AND I'm pretty certain I broke a sprinkler line too (don't know yet as my sprinklers are offline still - should be getting fixed today).
To anyone that's reading this and is thinking of putting in a pool, never underestimate all of the associated costs... (Landscaping, sprinkler repair, child safety fence etc etc etc ad nauseam!)

Thanks!
We're pretty much done. Decking is finished, palms are in, sod is in. Just need to repair the sprinkler system still...
