New front plant bed

We got around to fixing up the front yard a bit. Here’s the new plant bed:

Featuring: the somethingorother switch grass. And more of the lovely mulch.

This involved a trip to Behnke’s, which is always a treat, and pulling out the shrub that sat between our house and our pals at 733, which was less of a treat and more like recess at the gulag. A week later I still have large cuts on my forearms from dragging that thing out of the ground. It has now been replaced by some switch grass (on the left). We also put in some Japanese grass. I’m going for a grass motif down the left hand side of the property. We may end up putting mulch through out the front yard as the grass isn’t doing so well. At least we managed to get something into the hard-as-concrete clay soil.
