A beautiful old home is in desperate need of a landscape makeover. Sean Donovan, a law student, and Elissa, his art teacher wife, have slowly been chipping away at the many projects associated with keeping up an old house, but they haven't had time to tackle the landscape. That's why they've asked landscape pro Jason Cameron for help. Jason brings this huge house down to size with plenty of shrubs and hides a common problem, an air-conditioner unit that sticks out like a sore thumb. Find out if the neighbors approve of the changes on Davenant Avenue.
The basic steps in this landscape transformation, as well as a list of the new plants, are summarized below. But first, here are views of the yard before and immediately after this Desperate Landscapes makeover.
