Is it weird to like both versions equally? I love the look of nature taking over in the before pic, and the neat and tidy look from the after pic too! Such a great space to get to experience through the digital world, thanks so much for posting and explaining. You should be proud of the beautiful space you've created!

Silly question, but did you pull all the overgrowth by hand or a tool?
Not silly at all! For things without a taproot or crazy rhizomes (some grasses) I pull by hand. For taproots I've got this great stand up weeding tool that helps extract the whole root. I use them on the grasses too because they help loosen things up.
I always wear gloves and long sleeves while weeding because I don't know all of the potential risks from the local plants.
