Hello,
I have 4k sqft on slope backed to wooded land. Houses on the left and actual backyard on the right. I would like to get some inputs on the current plan.
I am located in Zone 5 IL.
We will be keeping the playset as-is. Remove weeds and topsoil.
Blue section – 20 Green Giants in 2 rows for privacy.
Purple section (3) – Planning to put steel edge (8inch high) to avoid erosion and put native plants/mulch inside.
Yellow Pathways with turf grass for now and add stepping stone later.
Red box – compost bin.
Will this work? Any suggestions or concerns?
Thanks!

Besides the compost bin maybe being too close to the playground –
Why not do something fun with the space? Your design idea sounds like it’ll look nice – but you could easily do something functional and super fun with it. Ropes course? Minigolf (full disclosure this is what I did with my backyard)? Disc golf? Way bigger play area? Horseshoes/bocce pit? Etc etc etc.
