Yard Work

Here is a project that I've been working on in the yard...not done, but getting there.

Before

After

This shot is in the morning...they get shade the rest of the day. I'm planning on adding some lilly of the valley under there too and probably a non-plant border. We'll see. I'm still in the experimental stages.

While on the topic of plants, anybody know what this is? Its all over the yard, but this is on the biggest plant and only one flowering--located in a flower bed area. I'm leaning toward weed, but maybe I just don't have any taste. :-) To keep or not to keep (?) that is the question (the ones in the flower bed area I mean...).
