Landscaping Thread - Show Off Your Landscape

I was thinking of some other stuff, one that came up was japanese spirea. But i like the yellow spring bugs of the forsythia

I have a lot of space out back with more varying amounts of sun to work with. I do like how easy it is to mow, i like having the bougie open lawn, but i also think it could use some pizzaz.

It's like a cheese pizza. Whenever I go to a new pizza place, i have to get the plain cheese and see how it stacks up. After that I'll play. I've had my cheese pizza, now it's time to play

Also, any input is welcome. I'm not shy about not knowing much about landscaping and gardening. No flack at all.




Much better:

 

More of a grass guy but still try to keep it clean.

 

Not close to being done but working on a fountain area. Maybe 1/3 done...

I keep saying to myself that I need to upload some spring pictures. We recently sold the duplex that we owned to a younger couple that was renting out one side. They are changing it from a duplex into a single family home. I have a rather extensive amount of plants at that duplex that I and some tenants planted over the last 30 or so years. The new owners have been kind and given permission for me to take some of the plants that I have there, even though they have taken ownership of the property. Between grabbing plants and cleaning out the mouse infested shed my spring landscaping has taken a back seat! But most plants survived the winter well and the 300 or so bulbs I planted in the fall seem to be coming up well. Pictures will follow!

 

Plain Frog poles of some sort.

 

Before:




After:

The blocks will be replaced with railroad ties next week. My mom has trouble with steps which is why we use those, but we're going to add a long railroad tie step right up against the carport.

 

Nice!

 

Working on a fountain area. Set posts yesterday, put wood up today.



I did trim the outside pieces. The pic i took had ladder in the way.

 

You gonna host weddings there?

 

If they pay...but prob not

 

They should cause that's gorgeous! I wanna come see it for myself.

 

I should be getting some parts to finish the fountain today
