Eight Great Side Yard Designs

12 years ago

One of my indulgences is time spent perusing Houzz e-magazine. I have to tear myself away. It is a great place for ideas, learning about products, designs, information-sharing with professionals and amateurs alike.
Anyway, thought it might be fun to share this article on landscape designs for narrow side yards.

Here is a link that might be useful: 8 Great Side Yard Designs

I love those, and I have printed them out in case our next house has a side yard like those. Thanks

Those are wonderful. Made me appreciate plant repetition, instead of having one of everything like plant collectors such as me tend to do.
