My husband and I moved into a rental home where the yards were without water and maintenance for a year. We have spent a good amount of money and time on trying to revive the grass and removing weeds. The house has come a long way and all of my new flowers and bushes make the yard more welcoming. We have recieved many compliments from the neighbors except from the ones to the left of us.
Problem: We share the yard in between the two houses, but our portion is much smaller than theirs according to the fence line of the back yard. There was an existing flower bed that marks out our portion, but it stops when it reaches the garage. The area of concern is from the street to the garage on the side of the driveway. This small section is about 20 feet long by3 feet wide and butts up to the neighbors front yard. The neighbors that I am talking about rake all of their debris onto this area on our side and leave it, or they have spiny balls that fall from their trees onto this area and they wont pick it up. There is a language barrier, so I really cannot talk to them about it. I am wondering if I should just plant roses in this area to create a barrier in between the houses? Any thoughts?
