Me and Kirk are going to be changing the front "shrubbery" very soon. I want some ideas of what kind of flowers to plant out front, and such. And if you have pics of your front yard, show me! :) Thanks, guys!

Sorry about the blurry pictures but what I did was use a mixture of different plants, some colorful and some not that would get nicer with age and not have to be replaced like flowers usually have to be.

its all wired ... solar ones never seem bright enough and eventually when that area grows it, it'll be very bushy and I figured solar ones wouldnt get much light
They are the low voltage ones from home depot run to the transformer box with a timer. I went a bit overboard with the lighting and ended up needing (2) 600w transformers just for the front yard.

Orlando, that looks really nice! And that's a good idea how you put the stones around the trees. We have a lot of brick pavers left from the job they did out back, so that would be a cool idea.

I'll try to take some pics of ours but its very similar to Orlando's. I chose very colorful plants and perinials that don't require maintanence.

I only have Croatans(sp)in my front flowerbed. They are colorful and I don't have to maintain them at all cause I'm lazy like that:mrgreen:
P.S. They live through anything and I mean anything.
