Any specific names of plants/bushes would be very helpful to research. 

This again illustrates how resilient the housing market has been throughout the turmoil of the past year.

The people a little older than me had already established jobs, and so they had "experience"; the ones younger than us had a little time to adjust, maybe adding a second major that was more resilient to the market. 

I am doing it myself and am looking to buy plants & gravel.

Spend a couple hundred dollars on bark, lay that on the flat areas with a weed mat and plant wild flowers on the hill, making it more easy on the eyes.B.

Eventually a person working for the state was able to send in a correction form to the IRS to fix that problem...but it took a lot of effort on my part to work through the system to see who and how the monthly board payments could be changed from salary which is taxable to board which is not.The other time some folks that I never met, have no idea who they are, or anything about them, used my SSN as theirs for work they did at several chicken processing plants. 

I love your persistence and resilience - that's what it takes!

@Isaac Gwin, when is the best time to plant a tree ?

The DYI nature leaves me struggling to find larger quantities of plants and gravel at a quality price.

I need to put down some plants and 8" down I hit a cement wall, may be an old septic tank.
