| Please tell me your honest opinion of the bed layouts. I need it because I over analyze everything. Nothings finished doing it for cheap & by hand, going for high impact no budget. For example the obelisk cost $16 to make. Seeking suggestions, bed layout changes, plant combinations, fresh ideas.

| You have some nice plantings. You might consider replacing some of the grass pathways with, say, shredded bark pathways to tie some of the beds together and give your landscape a more integrated look. |

| Your probably referring to the Photoshop; most of it's planted thought just too insignificant to give me an idea of what it might look like. The wisteria and golden chain tree have yet to arrive arrive; hope they do, bought them from a shady online nursery. Anyway I eventually plan on having paths of crushed limestone edged with lannon. I like the idea of mulch paths behind the vegetable garden since it's full of buried cable and electrical I could just put it down over a barrier & not dig out the grass. |

| If you do mulch paths, kill all the grass first! When top with cardboard, then mulch. |

| Looks like a lotta edging to me, but something tells me you can pull it off. Mike |
