Progress on our Front Yard

We were hoping to have our front yard done this weekend, but that is not going to happen.  There was so much dirt, leaves, toys, and junk that had accumulated under the bushes that it is taking us awhile to clean it up and plant our new plants.  But we figure that we might as well do a good job so it looks good for longer!  It thought I'd at least post some progress pictures.  Here is a reminder of what it looked like before--

And here is what it looks like now.  One rose bush and the new tree is planted.  We have the other rose bush and 3 prickly pear cacti to still plant.

Here is some close ups of the rose bushes.  The first two are the same bush--when it first blooms it is yellow with pink edges and then the yellow turns to white.


And this is the other rose bush.  You can't really tell by the picture by the blooms are very large--about 6 inch diameter when they are fully bloomed.
