Bobert,

I have laid out the yard so that not only it looks nice from the street but so that it is interesting from the house. The back yard bed outside my bedroom window was trampled by the dogs, there is a flowering shrub there now, but the rest of them still have flowers, trees, and shrubs that give a pretty landscape from each room. My office window on the front of the house looks out into the limbs of the vitex planted in the middle of the yard, and between the street and the vitex is a bed of iris and daffodils. Close to the house and tall enough to be seen from the window are several colors of Swiss chard. There are areas of turf in between these things. There are shrubs down at the curb that will bloom most of the summer (salvia gregii).
