The water leak is now all fixed!! Had to replace many other plumbing parts in the house due to sand and dirt in the water lines. But... now my garden is almost good as new..

Here are some comparison photos I made.

That does look like you did a lot of work in such a short time. Did you make any changes? Everything looks good.

I remember when your water disaster struck. WOW! You have done a lot in a short time. I am glad to see you have the situation well under control.
Great photos of your lovely yard. Thank you!

I did make a couple of changes. I took out a row of small lavendar mums that had been in front of the windows for many years, put them in the backyard. Then replaced them with in Purple Wandering Jew. The beds are edged with Garlic Chives which don't take much water. Between the flagstones, I replaced many of the wild violet plants with a small leafed succulent that grows pretty fast. Those two changes, once the new plants are established should help cut down on water usage. Anyhow that is what I am hoping.
