Hi -
I’m relandscaping my Sonoma County yard (I think zone 9-10). I will be installing drip irrigation, but I want to do low-maintenance stuff. The front yard faces west and is riddled with shallow roots from three birches in the front corner of the yard. We’re planning to mound dirt and do some terraced perennails/bushes – I’m thinking along the lines of bunch grasses and lavender, but would love more ideas. The space is maybe 30′x 15′. Soil is absolute concrete.
In the back I’m replacing a pool-side lawn with a path/seating area and more mounded landscaping. The back gets more shade, and I would love to do a fragrance garden (no roses, please…can’t stand them) and some japanese maples. What else? Soil is the same concrete crap. What else can I put in?
Thanks!
