Project Overview
Homeowner's goal
Add backyard privacy with new trees and shrubs, and leave the decorative rock beds looking finished around the planting.
Problem solved
The backyard beds needed a privacy planting. Unwanted plants were in the way, and some existing shrubs and an azalea needed a better location before the new trees and shrubs could be set.
Scope of Work
- Installed 14 trees and shrubs, including Emerald Green Arborvitae, North Pole Arborvitae, Taylor Juniper, Green Giant Arborvitae, Teddy Bear Magnolia, and Crape Myrtle
- Removed and hauled away unwanted shrubs, a hydrangea, and a tree
- Relocated existing shrubs and an azalea
- Installed landscape fabric and refreshed the decorative rock beds
The Backyard Before Planting
The decorative rock beds already held a mix of shrubs, a hydrangea, and a tree that did not fit the privacy layout. Some of those plants were removed. Others were dug and moved so the new trees and shrubs could be placed along the yard.
Plants and Bed Materials
- 14 new trees and shrubs: Emerald Green Arborvitae, North Pole Arborvitae, Taylor Juniper, Green Giant Arborvitae, Teddy Bear Magnolia, and Crape Myrtle
- Landscape fabric under the refreshed decorative rock
- Decorative rock used to refresh the existing beds
Removal, Relocation, and Bed Prep
- Unwanted shrubs, a hydrangea, and a tree were removed and hauled away
- Existing shrubs and an azalea were dug and relocated
- Landscape fabric was installed before the decorative rock was refreshed
How the Privacy Planting Was Installed
- North Pole Arborvitaes and a Taylor Juniper were set where the existing shrubs had been removed
- Emerald Green Arborvitaes, a Green Giant Arborvitae, a crape myrtle, a Teddy Bear Magnolia, and a juniper were planted in the prepared beds
- Relocated shrubs and an azalea were replanted, then the decorative rock was refreshed over landscape fabric
The Finished Privacy Planting
The backyard now has 14 new trees and shrubs for privacy, with relocated plants set back into the layout. The decorative rock beds were refreshed over landscape fabric. The existing fence and lawn were already on the property and were not part of this work.
