Front Yards

A sampling of front yards built upon my designs. I tend to focus on long season color that requires minimal (1-2x year) maintenance. Strong focal element using color within the foliage and texture and flowers as a supplement.

Former lawn space with no entry access except from Driveway. Replaced lawn with low maintenance colorful shrubs and perennials and created a seating area in the shade of the house for owners to enjoy.
