Landscape upkeep

When we moved in, all of our flower beds were overgrown and not in real good shape... I don't have any photos on the "before" for the front yard but have a preview of what it looked like in the back - which is all very similar. 

We did a lot of weeding, rock picking, paver leveling, and planting. Used different sprays, preen to prevent more weeds, mulch, and bought  A LOT of perennials so we just need to take care of the up keep each year - hopefully next spring isn't so time consuming :)

Front yard: 



The front isn't quiet done as you can see - a lot of overgrowth also meant a lot of weeds. Currently tackling those, filling weed spots bit by bit, and doing a lot of fertilizing. The two trees in front are slowly dying, so next year we will be taking those out, replacing, and redesigning some of the pavers/replacing them with something a little more nice than cinder block pavers. 


























Enjoy!
