Backyard planter before renovation

This dolphin topiary was in an inconspicuous place on the site of this beach cottage in Capistrano Beach, CA. By moving him into the focal point, he became the inspiration for this "sand dune". The glass mulch gives the feeling of surf lapping the shore.

By removing an overgrown palm tree and weedy grass, we were able to create a "sand dune".

This fountain adds soothing sound to the backyard.
