xan's Frontyard garden

Garden Type: Frontyard | Sun: Partial Sun | Soil: Don't Know

Resisted doing a “front yard garden” here, because I dunno, too many gardens, but I’ve had to move too many plants out there that I want to track. There’s just a little corner of plantings, my little feng shui patch; most of the yard is pachysandra and euonymous, with two large and one small 50-year old yews. Planning window-box type containers on the stoop next year.

Update: added a bed by the front stoop with some plants moved from the overcrowded SoPo bed in back.
