Sounds lovely. I am struggling to remove goldenrod and miscellaneous
"other plants" from my front yard beds at present. Does not help that 2
1/2 inches of rain fell last night after I started!

I planted a mix of evergreen and deciduous where I wanted trees. There were 
13 walnuts in the back yard in 1976. We've removed all but 3. The clump 
birches I planted died but the seedlings have grown up nearby. The tallrr 
trees are underplanted with dogwoods nest spruce cottoneaster phlox 
candytuft hosta and aquilegia. Everything is close and grown together. In 
the sunny beds iris daylilies roses etc all fight for sun. I keep them out 
of a few areas so my creeping thyme can grow. On the front walk the mauve 
thyme has crept onto the concrete walk since the poppies and daylilies 
overshadow their roots. Not much bare space.
