When I got back I decided to give some of the bushes a lot of TLC. The 'miracle grow' name did not live up to it's brand name. So I got out my big whacking tool and started chopping the bushes down.

Front yard slowly being transformed
Before I left for OR I noticed that my front yard bushes were dying. With end of the year schedule and preparing for my trip I only had time to hedge the suckers down, water the heck out of them, and put some 'miracle grow' down...in hopes that the name would make some amazing 'miracles'.
I felt bad for my neighbors...because my hedging job made the bushes look worse.....
But I had places to go and people to see....the bushes were going to just have to deal with disease and a Texas summer.

I replaced them with bark dust, hanging plants, and some succulents. A quick fix to a problem that I need really big power tools, time to do research, or having my dad come down to help me out.

Summer and the drought were really harsh on most of the plant life; alas, your shrubs had to go. But at least, you did a great job in cutting off the damage and restoring and replacing what was left of the shrubbery. Anyway, I hope you'll be able to return your yard back to its full verdancy. All the best!
