Front Garden/Side Garden

Hi!

I did some work on the front garden last Friday (May 22).  Mostly on the right hand side behind the side stairs.  But look at the very front gardens by the front steps. This is the right side.

  And this is the left.  

 Look how much that front plant has grown!  The same plant is on the right, but you can't even see it!

Here is the left side of the garden last week before I started moving things around.

 Here it is now.  I moved a bunch of plants around- Some just a little bit over and I split one Hosta go go on either side of the bird fountain.

Here's the corner before.

Here it is now.  I planted the little Globe Cedar that I got on sale for $14.99 (regularly $19.99!)  It should fill in the whole corner.  As it gets bigger I'll have to move some plants.  

Again, I moved some plants around.  I moved the two little plants to the right of the Globe from the back yard by the fence on the pond side.  They were in front of the clematis but it was too hard to keep that area weed free, so I'm letting it go back to grass.  And maybe moving the clematis, too!

  

Back to the front.  Here's the left Before.

I didn't really move too much around over here.

Here's the whole thing Before.

And After.  I can't wait to see how everything grows in! 

Here's the garden at the end of August last year!  Those plants grow so much!

I did some more work on the side of the courtyard. 

This is looking toward the neighbors' by the side of the courtyard.

I tore down the fence! 

And moved some plants around.  It still looks like a mess though, doesn't it?  Oh, well! It's getting there!

Have a great day! :-)
