Xeriscaping and urban forest
3 photos of my front yard
Please excuse the fingers in one of the photos.
The above is an example of xeriscaping. I haven't watered in 10 years. The base are low lying junipers with a 6 to 7 foot spread. I then added cottoneasters and peking cherries. Followed by dwarf high bush cranberries, a nanny berry, a Brandon cedar, and other shrubs. I covered the soil with wood chips. This took place over several years.
Backyard
9 swedish columners and a hedge is dwarf cedars. All the soil is covered in 3 inches of shredded bark.
I'm not suggesting that what I've done is ideal. There are many things that I would do differently. That said, I very happy with the direction.
