Landscaping a Pittsburgh Hill

Here is my photo diary of my front hill. I'll begin with the pix. Commentary will follow.

My Dream














Fall 2007














March 2008 - too cold to plant, kept dreaming














April 2008 - planted ferns and perennials - looked like a clump of dirt once done.















May 2008 -- Endless rain through spring brought, arrgh, weeds
!














June 2008 - first
stage of planting - still not pretty.














August 2008
- at least the ornamental grass is growing. What's that pink stuff in the middle?

Maybe if you let your cute kids stand in front of the hill, no one will pay attention to the pink stuff!
