Those look good. I'm looking to start designing plantings that I want for my front beds that were just done. I'm looking to have year round color/interest thru flowers,shrubs.
Look a the 1st picture I posted above. There are 2 Sunset Maples that I planted about 12 years ago now. They were about 1-2" trunks (10' tall) when I planted them. Just look at them now. Ones has to be about 5-6" dia now and 20' tall. Flourishing on there on now. 1st season is critical for success. Keep that root mass damp.
Front yard was edged and mulched while we were on vacation. Had the shrubs in front of the house yanked out. Long overdo for a makeover. Ready for plantings in the fall. Just need to come up with ideas for more color year round.
Gonna pull the trigger on doing the front yard this season. Edging/mulching, pulling up a few shrubs. Glad I have nothing to do with this amount of work.
Says he coming tomorrow AM to go over my list of things I’d like addressed. First and foremost is getting my entire lawn/gardens edged and mulched.
As a side bar, my lawn is the best it’s looked in a couple years. Still a bit of weeds in it and there is a good amount of thatch that’s led to thinned out areas. These are things I’d like addressed as well with contractor. I don’t have the time to put any meaningful time in doing yard work beyond cutting the lawn.
He did a charity hole that they aired after the event where he had to get a bogey or better for a 100k donation. His swing was not that brutal start/stop crap he’s been known for. He ended up with like. 10’ putt for bogey that just missed.
Ahhh, Chemawa. I used to play there almost weekly when I was in my teens and early 20s. Was a tight course but well manicured. We would show up at 630-7am
Yeah, my entire lawn/yard is in need of professional help. Need ps dethatching, aeration, denser grass, less weeds, beds, edging, mulch. You name it, it needs it.
