One year later...the front garden

Metamorphosis:

Last fall I started my long awaited front garden project : out with the old lawn and in with the drought tolerant natives and compatibles! It had taken a long time to convince both my husband and daughter that this was a really good idea. All Geoff could imagine was a desert landscape and Xandie thought she would miss the peanut-shaped lawn with a lone juvenile crape myrtle sticking out the middle of it. I'm happy to say that one year later, all three of us enjoy our new space and find it a welcome retreat when the weather is pleasant (which is most of the year here).
