Landscape Help

11 years ago

Please help! I have no idea what to do with the stone area under my bay window (left of door). I don't love those trees and they don't look very alive, but I'm clueless as to what to plan there and where. I am looking for coverage more than anything. Any suggestions?

Plantings with pink or purple would look look nice with your house color. Wait to see if the bushes perk up with Spring, although some shorter boxwoods would work under the window as well. While you are thinking about the front of your house, you also have some
serious safety issues with the brick coming off the steps and walkway.

Ha--don't worry, this was a "before" photos. The stairs are already replaced.
