Hello everyone,
I have just recently posted on the welcome section and decided to keep threads in their respective areas so I opened a new one.
Some of the history,
New home owner with a young family, back and front yard need work. As I promised in my previous thread I got some pictures to share and Im hoping the experts can provide some guidence as to what I need to do.
As I was taking pictures yesterdy I realized I cannot tell apart whats weed and what is an actual plant....... (I know I need A LOT of help hehehe). Anyhow, on to the pictures.
I guess I would like to have the front yard done first ( if one needs to be picked) So that my house isnt the ugly one on the block. These are the ugly spots in the front yard, the other side of the front yard is actually pretty thick and it seems to just be watered more often.
Along the side of the driveway
Along the walkway to the front door
These are the weeds I was talking about in my intro thread... Do I need to kill them with some kind of solution or can I just pull them out?
Close up to the weeds
Now lets move onto the Backyard, like I had mentioned there are lots of shrubs and trees that i really have no ideas as to what to do with them.
South view of the back yard (Not sure what the previous owner had in mind with that wooden/brick structer in the middle of the yard but thats going down.
North view o the back yard (My friend Sal hanging out..... lol)
I dont even know what Im going to do about this......
And here are some of the trees/shrubs in the back
Now the side yard is something that has me very excited, and im hoping to have some nice flower planted after a good clean up.
Anyhow, I know its a lot of work but im willing to do it. I would like to get my lawn green, trim down the shrubs and trees to give it a nice clean look and hopefully not break the bank in the process. Any and all information will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Alan
