Nice ghetto too bad my neighbors don't take the same pride in their surroundings. the privacy fence is so i don't have to look at them. maybe ghetto is a little over the top, but i live in a very old neighborhood with a lot old houses on city sized lots. i am lucky enough to own 3 lots, most of the lots in my hood are only 50' wide and the houses are small and in disrepair. |

i'm that guy, you know the one. lawn always manicured. not a weed insight. friends threaten to plant dandelions in my yard just so they can watch me lose it.  all the hosta's in front of the front deck i split from one monster this spring. i have around 10 different varieties around the yard. they are a great filler that grows like a weed. |

Our neighborhood's look very similar except a lot more weeds in my lawn. And spring is long gone here. We are in the midst of summer and +100° weather.

Unfortunately, I don't have enough shade at our new house for hostas |

Very nice birdy! We probably have 10 or so varieties of hostas as well in our flower gardens. They do grow very well. |

it's funny how i look at photo's from other parts of the country and say to myself how much it resembles here. |

Very Nice, you would love my neighbour's garden it is beautiful as well.
In my spare time I would rather play golf then garden, so my yard is a mess. I have employed gardeners to come in and fix it up.
I had a mini-rainforest at the front of the house, which they have cleared and mulched for me. They will be starting on the back yard next week, it is going to cost a fortune as we have so many palms that need cutting back and clearing.
