Shrub ID - What is the variegated shrub »

Westover Landscape Design, Inc. Hello Sarah, thanks for your note. The variegated shrub in the picture is a Red Twig Dogwood Shrub. The winter color of the red twigs (especially in the snow) is spectacular. Good luck with your project! Robert

Ornamental Grass - What type of ornamental grass is this in front of the fence? Also is it evergreen? Thanks! »

Westover Landscape Design, Inc. Hi Cory, thanks for the question. Those are daylily plants, not ornamental grasses. We planted two types, Hyperion and Autumn Prince. Hope this helps. Robert

Do you know the spacing of the pickets? - Can you tell me how many inches each picket is spaced? Thanks! »

Like · Comment · 6 months ago

Westover Landscape Design, Inc. I'm sorry, I don't. They are standard spacing for this type of pre-made picket fence. My guess is 2 1/2 - 3 inch spacing. This is a pretty standard off the shelf fence, not custom at all.

Good luck!

What Houzz contributors are saying:

added by Billy Goodnick to Give Curb Appeal a Self-Serving Twist

A narrow strip of grass leads the eye to a uniform massing of daylilies here. The rustic wood fence not only serves as a backdrop for these perennials, but divides the property into public and semiprivate spaces. The inner plants are arranged en masse, blocking the view of the curb from the house without being unneighborly.
