It's the same thing that is in your friend's yard, screening the view to the neighbors house - hedera helix, English Ivy. You can see where we started to pull it up. It's taken up a week to get that far but now we have a chainsaw muhahaha.

I did go out and take some pictures today and saw a few gardens that have elements your friend might use. The one needing the least maintenance is below The white daisy clump is a santa barbara daisy with verbena and spanish or austarlian lavender in the background and a cape daisy in front.
