Shrub help, Afternoon sun

19 years ago

The bed along the front of our house faces northwestish and gets sun starting around noon or 1pm.

I'm having a heck of a time getting something to work at the very end of the bed. The bed is currently 25' long x 3' wide, I'm looking for something to go at the far end of the bed at the outside corner of the house, something that will make a good 'anchor'.

It can be tall, it can be bushy, it doesn't matter as long as it doesn't die.

Last year I tried boxwoods and indian hawthornes, I put them in too late in the spring (sometime in May), they got fried AND I overwaterd. In early April this year I tried a blue point juniper and I left it alone only watering when the top inch or 3 were dry. The tips are yellowing and I'm ready to rip it out and plunk a rock in it's place. Everything else I put in that day is doing fine.

Help my house look purdy!
