|||||||
One of the dryland garden beds. |
|||||||
Native plant garden bed. Walkways are designed wide enough to encourage plants to grow over. This reduces maintenance, and the edges look soft and graceful. |
|||||||
Another dryland garden bed with some featured rocks from the owner's rock collection. |
|||||||
Formal dining area. In the background is a 15 x 20-foot trellis that screens the garden from the next-door neighbor. Morning glories are the first-year vine cover. Evergreen vines will take one or two years to cover the trellis. |
|||||||
View across herb and rose beds in the formal garden to new greenhouse in background. |
