When we purchased our house old mate turned off the sprinklers as soon as he moved in after building. Over the 2 years we've brought back the front yard, painted and added some features.
You've done a fantastic job of bringing the garden back and improving it dramatically @amclaughlin09.
I really like the colour choice you have gone with on the house, and the new plants compliment it well.
Many thanks for sharing your results.
