New landscaping in circle driveway at front of house.

It has always been our thought that we would keep the grass in the circle driveway at the front of the house.  Each year the grass would die out from insects,disease and fungus. Even with treating  the area and adding compost and Osmocote organic fertilizer, by the end of Summer we had the same problems again.

Last year over half of the grass was lost due to the fungus and we decided to replace it with a flower bed along the street under the large live oak trees, and an area of  decomposed granite with a simple design near the house. The plants used in this flower bed are all similar to those used in the adjoining front garden and are all drought tolerant but will have quite a bit of color and will soften the granite areas.
