My husband and I bought our first home about 2 years ago. We’ve spent most of our time over the last 2 years working on the inside of the house and now we are begining to focus out attention on the yard.

I’m very new to gardening. I’ve spent the last two years pretty much just maintaining the shrubs and lilies that were here when we bought the house. However, now that I have a little more time I’ve planted a small vegetable garden and I’m looking at putting in some roses in the front yard. We’re also looking at completely redoing our current backyard and we’re currently making our plans for that.
