Done?

Almost done.  Again this year we planted to polka music from Deutsche Tage across the street.

All the shrubs and most of the trees are in.  Two trees have to wait until the utilities are marked tomorrow - I'm not interested in cutting the gas line...

We'll also have to re-position some perennials and fill-in more perennials in a few spots in this front garden.

The foundation plantings on the sides of the house will still have to wait until the tuck-pointing is finished.

More Landscaping

More landscaping is on the way.  These are just the "before" and "during" photos for the preparation phase.

The hedge was a bit past its prime.  I didn't bother trimming the hedge this spring knowing that we'd be removing it anyway.  When I trimmed it last year, there wasn't must foliage left and it looked pretty sad...

The new plants are coming this weekend.  I'm gonna be digging some holes...
