What's in the front garden now

I have planted:

- three Mugho Pines (Pinus mugo mughus) at the edge of the lawn/drive
- a Japanese Andromeda (Pieris japonica 'Mountain Fire')

The Mugho Pines should grow to about 4' tall by 5' wide... in a few centuries. The Pieris will need to be kept under control size-wise eventually. The label for the Pieris has a picture of an adult deer with a stop sign superimposed, like a traffic sign. If I see the deer waiting in the garden for the lights to change, the Pieris will come out.
