Dogs tear up yards, fences, plants, landscaping.

In the mean time, keep helping everyone by planting trees. 

How about buying a big full plant or tree or three and put them in big pretty pots to put in that space.  

If you on the West coast title plants have been moved to the Philippines.. we get title reports or commitments next day if requested and for free as noted above if your a RE professional and or giving any kind of decent business to a title and escrow company this is how they keep customer loyalty..

An example would be the huge Boeing plants.  

The tenant expressed interest in it, so I left it as the gift.I have also given a small plant on occasion.I always leave a greeting card.

Any kind of flower plantings will have to be pruned, headed, weeded, edged, etc.If it was a small yard, I'd just cover the whole thing with concrete and tell the tenants they can grow plants in pots.

They even complained on one that the local chipmunks and squirrels had eaten their plants in the garden (complete with photos of chewed plants) - and the remedy they sought for each of these filings was termination of the lease.

(make those pillars stand out - two tone paint maybe)plant some seasonal plants along side of walk away and by bricks removing the left bush and if you have the money change that front door as well. 

The tenant thinks the plant is "cute", but I'm not so sure.
