Landscape designer Marcia Weber of Gardens to Love has a plan to restore the yard. The design calls for a new fence in the backyard and lots of perennials. Part of the patio in the back is demolished, and a ginkgo tree accents the area. Workers install a bluestone path, which leads to an attractive bluestone driveway in front of the garage.
Hemlocks help screen the back of the lawn, which softens the look of the chainlink fence.
A variety of plants such as azaleas and hydrangeas fill the yard.
