An Eichler remodel with a steep hillside garden. This project pushed the limits of creating flat space where there was none! The angular architecture of the garden is balanced with bold and textural free form plantings. Color, texture and juxtaposed angles.

The Garden Route Company Hi, this would greatly depend on soil type, micro climate and how steep the slope is. Can you provide more info?
