My wife's house in Cincy backed onto a green belt, mostly trees and deer (which ate everything). I had terraced it over time with the limestone rocks, some rather large, and salted daffodils around, I hope they are still there. It was a sign spring was near, but then in Cincy the weather could turn nasty for a few.
That was a very nice backyard, we had a deck overlooking it, and I had a ceiling put in under the deck so the downstairs are was very useful for parties. That ceiling was super nice, cost a bit of money of course.
