A newly planted red azalea in the front yard. Note the pinola stone edging.

The pinola stone also extended from the drainage line to control erosion until grass can be planted.
Back yard in Spring of 2016, showing what just one year of raking the leaves can do to improve things!
The pinola stone was chosen because its colors form a nice match to the yellow brick of the house. The stone is unique to northwest Georgia.
