Comments (18)As far as the damaged tree, I don't think you can do anything about it. First it looks like the tree is mending itself.

Comments (3)As much as I love the burning bushes I agree they have to go. @sigrid-thank you for the plant ideas, had to look some of them up, beautiful! AND looks that most of them are perennials, which is an additional bonus! Thanks again!...See MoreMichele Armstrong
