I think I've over analyzed this one in my head to death.

I need fresh eyes and opinions. This photo is my current backyard, taken from the second floor so you can get an idea of the scope. The homes behind the fence are brand new. This used to be a greenbelt with huge native trees. Most were evergreen. It was the perfect backdrop.....well....you see my dilemma now. Moving is not an option for us right now.

I know I need evergreen....something. The tree in the corner is a Mountain Hemlock. I think it grows about 3" a year. LOL!

You can also see how I'm digging up the garden right now!!

Thanks for any and all suggestions! Sue
