Nate:
so after all of the fence stuff, my land lord shows up one day with roughly 25 / 26 english laurel bushes and says that he wants them planted in the following sections.  mind you my land lord and his wife are 2 very powerful and rich Korean's with somewhat poor engrish grammar..............SMH / FML........... ???  He pointed to the 2 places that he wanted them and said let him know what he needed to buy for supplies, got in his Porsche panamera https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=porsche%20panamera%202017  and popped ninja dust (pun intended......;D)

so, I conversed with the wife on what we would do if we were the ones paying the $$$ and then got to work measuring, digging sod up to re-use in areas that didn't have grass (previous folks were drug dealers and didn't care about the lawn), laying in landscaping brick, digging holes for the shrubbery bushes, and laying red mulch.

before





the white lattice crap quickly disappeared and the bushes were planted about 3' apart (should grow to roughly 6') so that when fully matured and landscaped, they will hid all of the power and coms garbage.











the other side was planted approx. 2' apart, should be 4' tall when matured, that way you can still see something instead of being completely blind as to what is going on in front of your house.  there is also a break to allow for use of the parking area on the side of the house.  maynard was my forman this time!









all in all, I think it turned out really nice!

all of the sod that was dug up from the 2 areas was placed on either side of the drive way, to attempt to get some sort of grass and not dirt in those areas.





so I will keep those areas watered, and get some nitrogen down for the english laurel, and pray.

Looks good! I hope your land lord works with you on your rent for all you are doing. If you get bored up there you can come work on my yard down here where it has been hot lately!

Looks real good there Nate!
Keep the 'new' sod watered well, and it should take.
Quite a little upgrade in curb appeal.

And I'll always take help eagerly as well. Lol. That is if you'll work for beer. ::)
