Just make sure it is full of mulch Kwanjin. That's a lot of yard to cover and I haven't been able to find a wholeseller. I heard about calling the utility dept and plan on doing so next week. I could kick myself for not thinking about this as the shreaded the Bradfords and other shrubs. Rookie mistake #2 on this post.

I am interested to find out what the shrub is. It has a several dead blooms on it. It is a pretty shape and color, but you are absolutely right. I may decided to do an entirely 70's flower garden with tie dyes and neons. I could go goth and get all black. That is the amazing thing I didn't really know, all the options. Right now I am on a Coleus kick, but that is because it is sooo easy. How about a giant chess board motif made up of black flower punk rockers against tie dyed hippie flowers. The neighbors already think I am off because I have had them catch me talking to my plants like they were humans. Just keeping them on their toes! Here's the shrub if anyone knows. It could be just a weed that grew REALLY well.
