Marv, consider replacing that grass with multi-colored stones and plant more hearty native succulents (allo vera cactii etc). They will flower springtime and look good as well as providing something for the wildlife. Maybe grapes, olives, lemon tree, or whatever is drought tolerant.

Less maintenance plus looks better.

Draw your view on paper, make 20 different designs, see what you like.
Add a statue or pair of 10ft lions at the gate, a lined drive, a brick fence or baby poo yellow fence, a big recirculating fountain right in the center, or some yard art (but not a 82 DeVille on jack stands). Something you will love to look at out the front window...every single day.

You've got a nice view with potential. Totally jelly here.
