My Bloomerang lilac is the same. I may replace it as well.
Great project Steph and George! I love that you guys have all the rocks a boulders to work with and add a lot to the landscape. Your property is beautiful at every turn😊
Steph and George, this is gorgeous. I have had the root slayer for a couple of years now after Jim Putnam recommended it and it has been a game changer for me.
There’s purposes for landscape fabric, and if used responsibly, there’s no reason not to use it. 👍
Thats what adain jumping worms look like , thats what i thought it was at first!
Great job on the many projects! Teamwork makes the dream work 😉
The curves in your new bed extensions were the way to go, at least esthetically. However, George went to sharp on the curves, which is going to make mowing the grass even more of a pain, if not impossible, depending on mower type/size, which means the trimmer has to be used.
Your yard is beautiful. I wish i had a George. The 7 son tree is great. I have one and it is beautiful. You make good choices.
Great shapes in those lines of new garden! Can’t wait to see new shrubs and trees in the spring. A satisfying full day for you two.❤❤
Hi Steph🌺 . Wonderful project in the garden and these shrubs and trees are going to be amazing in the garden .Have a great day .🌺🌻🌺
Hi, I wanted to let you know that chionanthus virginicus/fringe tree is a plant that the deer rub their antlers on. They rub it so hard thae bark rubs down to the whitewood. I thought it would heal over, so I didn't do anything, but the following year, they did it again!!! I had to put a wire cage around mine unfortunately. But mine is 10 years old now and thriving, but still has to have the cage till new bark grows over where they rubbed it off. They're beautiful trees though. My birds like mine, but unfortunately you have to have a male and female for fruit, and I only have 1 tree. If i could find a place that sexed their plants, I would buy a mate, but i don't have any idea if mine is m/f though.
love beautiful landscape you guys work well together thanks for sharing so inspiring to change add somethings to my backyard area.
I love the Japanese maple tree we tried few years ago planted one in front yard zone 6 it failed I was so hurt. scared to try again. I would like to plant a spruce shrub it's not to late if I plant it next weekend?
This is going to be a beautiful new garden space. Look forward to watching your progress.
yeah! root slayer is my go to shovel for everything
I just planted a bloomerang lilac..is it a dud then?
What a difference! Looks amazing now, so neat and tidy, so the end result will be awesome!
GORGEOUS additional Trees ❤Shrubs.much better😊👍 thank you both for great tips🍂🍂🍂
The rootslayer is my favorite gardening tool- things are so much easier with it!
Love it!!!!
We are working on a mixed deciduous evergreen border too —- to replace an old raggedy Arb hedge . It’s by far the hardest project we have ever taken on. We also chose Ossorio G to brighten up the space, leaning on golden metasequoia particularly for wetter areas…
I can clearly see why the landscape fabric was a choice. The wildness, slope and distance from the house all make sense. I am not a fan, but for your needs, it does seem perfect. I love the choice of plant life, especially the fringe tree, which I am thinking about myself. I am of a mind now that most of my beds will be deer and rabbit resistant, but mostly proof, drought tolerant and not need to be pruned down to fit the space. I’ve removed roses, lilies, hosta, and any perennials that needed to be sprayed for a variety of reasons. Love the new Japanese columnar tree. Nice to have access to a grower. That whole area will be just gorgeous over time. Much good luck with the project. Isabel the root slayer too. Heavy for me, but a great tool.
