+1. When new people move into our neighborhood, they do what you did. usually they go with small evergreen shrubs placed 4-5 feet apart and some mulch. Its a clean updated look.

It's a really, really, really boring look.

I hate when new neighbors move in to CCDC and can't wait to make their mark on their property by cutting down all the mature trees and sometimes-valuable landscaping ( like a mature japanese maple) and replace it with shit from Lowes.

Then they wonder why their basements are fooding and why didn't the prior owners need a french drain system? Trees, duh.

I just moved to CCDC. I love mature trees and would never do such a thing, but alas, I have a TH with no yard. If anyone wants to trade houses, I will gladly take over your garden and do it properly
