Ideas To Break Up A Large Expanse Of Lawn

Simple little plots like this planting bed are great for breaking up a large expanse of lawn or simply creating interest. In an existing landscape, this would be a quick and easy way to dress up an otherwise shapeless expanse. In a Fescue lawn like this which isn't aggressive grass, it would simply be a matter of cutting out the sod and planting some regionaly appropriate plants.
