My own suburban Eden
Owner: Sandi Clarke Location: GarlandI own a very small two-bedroom house which has an even smaller L-shaped back yard. After buying the house and struggling to make the grass grow under the shade trees I finally decided to dig a pond and surround it with gravel and potted plants. After several years of enjoying the pond, the water...
The Garden of Eat'n
Owner: divaqs Location: RentonIn 2003 I bought my house with ½ acre of land and quickly launched an ongoing project of re-landscaping my yard with all edibles. My neighbors were alarmed when I dug up my front yard and began making dramatic changes. One neighbor came over to ask me what I was doing and after hearing that I was...
Blank Canvas - Side Yard
Owner: Jess Ferguson Location: Fort MillAny advice on what do plant would be much appreciated. Next to the house I feel like it just doesn't look well organized....
Our House
Owner: nla9825 Location:Wanting to update the front yard of our house. Currently has shurbs and various plants/flowers but it is not our taste and seems to be randomly placed. No symmetry to both sides of the house what so ever. We have a bi-level home with a sidewalk extending from our drive way to our front door rough...
A hidden vineyard escape...
Owner: Wenikikini Location: AmarilloWhen we finally got the side of the house all set up, garden growing and everything. I decided to plant some grapes. I thought it would take up the extra space on the side. Every year I thought they died so I bought another 2 plants and planted them.. then the 3rd year.. all 6 of them came up like m...
Average Front Yard (BEFORE)
Owner: Wenikikini Location: AmarilloHouse was finished in June of 2005. Moved in on July 8th, 2005. The sprinkler system and sod were put in a few days later and they build the fence soon after. The yard was not prepared for anything.. half my yard died, I found the SOLD sign under the sod by the drive way. The trees weren't planted r...
Kathy's Flower Garden
Owner: shuffles Location: GastoniaMy many kinds of flowers, both annuals and perennials, are in full bloom. My backyard has really come to life both with potted plants and inground plants. We love sitting outside around the pool and just take in Mother Nature's beauty....
House Yard
Owner: Shauhn Caughron Location: SeymourThis is the yard in front of my split foyer home that needs help badly! It has old landscaping that looks terrible and I am flustered. I like a fun, spunky, but modern look. I will be doing it DIY so it can't be anything too crazy. I don't know a lot about plants, but I like plants that will be pret...
My Work in Progress
Owner: Heidi Nemith Location: FredericksburgWell, the FRONT yard is done. Mostly. It IS trial and error over time, right? I love it because it's all me and exactly what I was after; it solved a few problems well and looks great with the house. I have a fondness for year-round interest and like my beds even in winter. I drew a plan in crayon o...
Footprints
Owner: Tonya W Location: Woodland HillsThis yard is slowly changing. We replaced the very old grape stake fencing with vinyl. Soon we will be planting curving flower beds to hide most of the white walls. We removed tons of ivy and have planted two chinese elms and one sycamore tree. One particular day, my wonderful husband brought home ...
