After wishing the giant blue spruce a sincere farewell, we turned our attention to adding some foundation plantings around which to add visual interest.
The gnarly yews came out.
New choices: boxwood ("Green Velvet") and forsythia ("Magical Gold" with "prolific flowering") for early spring color.
We added blueberries ("Chippewa"), and asparagus.
Coming later: hydrangea ("Blue Jangles"), sedum ("Cherry Tart"), vibernum ("Carlesii Compacta"), leptodermis. Flowers and others as we decide.
