We were definitely over-planted when we closed. We hired a wonderful landscaper (husband and wife team) who reused many of the plants and simply moved them to better locations around the entire property. New plants were added as needed. One tree was pulled out and a small palm was planted. We didn't go crazy with palms (we were advised against it) and, after reading about palm trees in another section of TOTV, I'm glad we listened. Also, we replaced the miserable-smelling (to me)pine mulch with something that won't trigger an asthma attack.
