Cul-de-sac front yard Re-imagined (2015)
Before photo: typical surburnan cul-de-sac with a turf front yard.
After photo: A re-imagined cul-de-sac front yard that affords both new vertical and color interest and textures.

Turf is water hungry and should be replaced with a drought tolerant landscape.
