Need some help please
Can someone please show me what this would look like with those two big ugly round bushes out on the side of my driveway?
I am trying to get an idea of what to do for replacing these and the ones in front of the house.

How about pines along the side of the driveway? Or even just grass, to make the front yard bigger.

We are thinking of removing those two round bushes and leaving the middle. And just leaving it open as is. But I was wondering anyone can photoshop those out to see what it would look like. Do you know how to do that?

No, Im sorry I'm not a photoshop pro...
I'm not sure if you have a landscaper, but if you do, you could ask them for recommendations.

I do but I am changing since he is more of just a lawn cutter.

Beth I would just take them out. I'm sure you wouldn't regret it. Either put grass there with no bushes or take out all the bushes and put seasonal plants there with mulch. In front of the house I would put lower bushes and flowers. It would really open up the front of the house. GL!
Sorry I don't have Photoshop to help you out.

Thanks Jen. That's what we were thinking. My DH wants grass but I kinda like the mulch there too because the front and right side of driveway have mulch beds filled with nicer bushes.
And most def. lower stuff for the front of the house. We do however have a dumb a/c in the front that we need to camouflage, so we may put a larger tree/bush on each side to make it symmetrical.

Maybe you could do these bushes.
Golden Mop Cypress
Check out my Gardening Album for my other bushes.
You can keep any of these bushes smaller just by pruning them once a year, or they will get bigger. Hope this helps.
