Right now you get my yard...

While you're at it





Okay, so as we started the work on my back yard, I took advantage of the crew to help me give the front a face lift as well. As you can see, the front of my house was adorned by a hybiscus and a couple of privets. You might not be able to tell from the photos, but they were well over 30 years old. The trunks on the privets were about 12-14" wide - not a good thing to be so close to my house foundation. The hybiscus was attractive, but the wood was also ancient and it was showing the signs of being kept as a hedge for too long. I'm not quite sure about the future plan for the front, but I am leaning towards day lilies - simple and colorful.
