Well 22 years ago we moved in and the only thing in the front yard was the pine tree and the lilac tree..As the years went on and there were many I got more into gardening and ran out of room in the back yard :rolleyes: so lets make a front yard garden :yes: So we worked off the lilac tree and made the raised garden with the Wisteria tree at the end :yes: Dug up the sides of the side walk and put gardens up the walk :rolleyes: Well the pine tree was hanging on the ground so slowly started to trim her up,well lets put lannon stone and plants in there :yes: I still had 1 more space for plants and that was around the city tree :yes: I am now out of room so to answer to question in all it took about 4-5 years in the front :yes:

I deadhead twice a day, water the potted plants maybe twice a day if needed, ferts every few days, water the grass almost everyday and twice, stand there and look around maybe 50 times a day :rolleyes: Its a job in it's self :yes: Oh and that is just the front yard :yes:

I know what you mean. I am putting together a photo album for prospective buyer(s) on my house, of the garden. I am out there before breakfast pulling out dead leaves, after work deadheading, at night, still pruning, and all weekend.... But it sure is a thing of beauty! I really want one of those Daylilies you have with the yellow slim-petalled varieties. It's a knock-out and never saw one before like that.

Marie, We live just a few blocks away.. wanna come over and deadhead my flowers? I'll let ya! :yes: I eventually want to get to a point that we have no grass at all... have a long way to go yet though... and I think its gonna take retirement before I have energy to keep up with that much deadheading and weeding.. And its gonna be quite a few years before I'm gonna be able to do that.
