hard work paying off, Took some of the suggestions that I received. Moved pots to the edge of the front porch. Reworked the flower bed- put larger shrubs on each end- moved the spirea to the area where the stepping stones were. Put drawf nandina's around the shrub on the left. I love the way it look so far. I still have to put more flowers around the shrubs in each area. , Yards Design

back yard, There is a large pond in my backyard. the oringinal home owner made a small sitting area by the pond. I tore it down and made a larger one. It is not finished yet. We also relocated a large amount of small trees that were in the center of the yard. Also when we moved in there was a lot of grass that was dead., Yards Design
