Wed, 25 Jul 2007 12:03:32 +0000 http://www.salemnews.com/lifestyle/local_story_206120332 http://www.salemnews.com/lifestyle/local_story_206120332 Q: There was a terrible accident outside our home that claimed the lives of four young people. Their friends and family have erected a shrine of sorts in their memory right at the corner of our driveway. It is difficult enough for us to deal with the fact that four young adults died in front of our house, and while we understand and respect the significance of their loss to their loved ones, strangers regularly congregate and mourn at this memorial at their leisure. We live with this 24 hours a day. Are we out of line in asking to have this memorial taken down?

It took approximately five days before the water receded. The leaves on half of the bushes turned brown and fell off. This spring, two bushes produced about 10 percent of their normal foliage, mostly at the top. I pruned here and there where the branches looked completely dead. They are 7 feet tall and an eyesore. What are the odds that these plants will recover? I have invested much time and energy and will wait another growing season if you think they will come back. Should I give them another year and see what happens or just take them out?
