| late April: Post-bamboo removal. |

| late April |
 |
| Early June. I reduced the size of the bed, and expanded the lawn by putting in sod. |
 |
| Mid June: Sod has taken, bamboo temporarily under control, I added some astilbe for a little color. |
Bed B5. I consider this the primary backyard bed. Our main living area, the family room, has a direct view of this area, so it was one of the first areas I attacked. As spring sprung, we found a net of bamboo runners under this bed. After many many hours of pulling out bamboo runners, we ended up with one fern, a healthy crop of daylilies, a hydrangea tree (Peegee?) , and a couple heavily pruned butterfly bushes (color yet unknown).
