That's my neighbor's place behind the ninebark and the yard in front of the bush is off limits for planting. Hilarious! My dad does all the mowing and won't allow me to take anymore yard space other than spots already being used or hard to mow. The flower bed you see to the left behind is also my neighbor's. We don't get along with them very well and they think at times we're spying on them because our house backs up to the line and our kitchen looks their way. They planted Roses of Sharon on that side of the line and I'm doing the ninebark, roses and hydrangeas on this side.

I do have stuff that's just out of shot there but I want to fill that space there. I know it will get to about 6 feet tall and wide and thought it would be enough when I bought it about 3 years ago. But now I think I really want it filled with roses on the other side and make it fuller. On the other side of the pole I have 2 Incrediball hydrangeas and plan on adding at least one or 2 more there.

We are on about an acre here and I have plants everywhere. I also have what I think is Scentimental rose and 2 OSO Easy Paprikas and a Stars and Stripes miniature rose. There is also Climbing Penny Lane rose in my yard. Then there's the Dr. Huey rootstock that will get hit with Tordon as soon as we replenish our supply. I can't kill it for anything and have 3 that need to go and be replaced eventually with own root somethings.
