Yes, actually. There is a really nice one on W. Pecan. I forgot the name off
hand, but it's on the south side of the street and is near where they were
making the road wider, if that helps.

I have some Red Tipped Phenias in my yard that are about 5 or 6 feet tall.
They are too big for my taste and I want to replace them with some type of
short shrubs that I can keep at 2 to 3 feet tall.

When is a good time for planting shrubs?

Thanks,
Gary
