I finally convinced my husband to rip out the miserable junipers that were dominating our front yard. But now we have to decide what should go in their place.
The junipers did a nice job of blocking the neighbor's driveway and hiding the electrical and cable boxes.
I've included some pictures of the space below.
As for replacement ideas, I've been thinking about butterfly bushes, rosemary/lavendar and sweet olive. But I really have no idea. I'm looking for something that will do the same job as the junipers, but won't be poky and gross and evil. Heh.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
Here are the junipers. We cut them back a ton before I thought to take a photo.
And here is the sad and naked post-juniper, pre-awesome front yard.
What wondrous yet low-maintenance shrubs or shrub-like things would you fill this space with?
