Hey Mamas,
We live in Mesa, AZ (zone 9) and I need some serious plant help. I'm including pictures of our front and back yard. They were taken at around 3pm. http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v6...albumview=grid
I'm planning on keeping the 4 trees that line the back yard and the two Texas sagebrush on either side of the yard but other than that, everything else can go.
I really hate the hibiscus next to the play house and the bougainvillea in the middle of the trees.
I was thinking of taking the hibiscus out and planting pomegranate bushes on either side of the yard but, other than that, I have no idea????
Also, in the front yard, I'm in an HOA so I have to replace a tree on the left side of the house which as you can see is in between two 2 story houses and is on the east side so it doesn't get a ton of sun. I also have to replace a couple other plants - specifically on the right side right in front of the column by the front door and by the wall to the right of the front window.
I'm completely clueless about all this and my DH want's nothing to do with it. I've tried talking to the nursery people but, they are really no committal and won't give concrete answers. Any suggestions would be HUGELY appreciated.
