I'm having visions of what I'd like to do to the front yard, to personalize the landscaping and make it more our own. Is it bad to fully remove large bushes just because I don't like them? If it's not a huge project to dig them out (yeah right), then I'll see if there are any takers. The problem is, I just can't plant any flowers around them because they are too huge!
Nope, not a bad thing at all to remove plantings you don't like so that you can have the garden you see in your mind. I have had a lot of luck with posting on Beaconcitizen for folk to come and take plants I dig up - have yet to compost any of those !
ReplyDeleteWe dug up two huge bushes from our front when we first moved here. I think they were yews. It was not easy to do, lots of grunting, but It made a great difference and I've never missed them!
ReplyDeleteThis is great to know! Getting excited...
