Sorry it took me so long to post pic, Just figured out how! ha ha electronically challenged lol
Here is a picture of the grounds I take care of with the youth.
When I took it over last year, none of the shrubs (which consist of Barberry, Burning Bushes, Spirea and one kind of like spirea with little yellow and white flowers) were planted in the correct areas.
Full Sun in Shade and visa versa, large in front of the smaller ones. The burning bushes were so out of control, they were 6 ft high. We moved the shrubs around and found the boxwood hedge.
I encorporated daylilies which will hopefully fill in nicely and take up some room. (Whoever originally designed this was crazy, too much area)
I am thinking about moving spireas to the back since they grow larger than boxwoods. I planted flowering plums grouped together in threes with burning bushes pruned hard in the front last year, really pretty, adds some vertical height.
The following perennials are planted: shasta daisy, coneflowers, purple salvia and gaillardia in the front. I planted zinnia pinwheels in the greenhouse to border the building think will add some well needed color.
Any suggestions?
