This weekend, aside from enjoying an Arsenal FA Cup semifinal win over Man City, I finished my spring planting by planting roughly a dozen bushes and shrubs in both the front and back yards around my house.
I planted primarily arbor vida and junipers, since the evergreen bushes continue to look good in the winter. The shorter ground cover junipers replaces similar bushes that had died over the past several years, and the small arbor vida were planted along the tree line of the forest in our front yard, which I had expanded last spring after clearing roughly 30 trees.
