I have a hatred for hedges. Look, if I wanted to live in an office park, I just would.
So I have been methodically murdering all of ours from the front yard, much to my partner's horror.
I have only one row of them left and they are against a stone wall, so for now they will stay.
Here is the newest planter I did today:
Those are grasses and then a Salvia on the left and Sea Lavender on the right, plus some annuals (Marigold) to add some color, even though I don't believe in planting annuals in general.
Here is the top planter (Halloween decor and all):
There are Papyrus plants flanking the archway, and I love these because they are all prehistoric looking. And then there are some grasses and succulents to add some color. And the pumpkin face. I have solar uplighting on the Papyrus so at night they get to be all show-offy.
I am liking it! The colors work well I think. Hopefully I can keep it all alive. God bless sprinklers.
