This entrance way needed a makeover. The plants here were not thriving, and the homeowner did not like the design. The walk was made of flagstone stepping stones and did not stand out because of the grass surrounding each stone. This job was constructed over a couple of years with the walk and its cobblestone border constructed one year; the cobblestone border around the bed on the other side of the front constructed the next year, along with leaf compost roto-tilled into the bed to improve the soil. The beds were planted in the fall of the 2013, and the planting completed in the spring 2014. Some of the deer resistant plants used were narrow upright 'Dee Runk' boxwood, 'Admiration' barberry, Pieris, Acuba, 'Otto Luyken' cherry laurel, and a few varieties of Azalea, with a couple transplanted from the original planting. The hostas which can sometimes be devoured by deer were transplanted from the side of the house, and were larger leaved varieties that the deer seem to leave alone on this property. The bed was mulched in the fall of 2013 with leaf compost, and in spring of 2014 with 1/2 shredded bark mixed with 1/2 leaf compost, to help improve the soil.

Design ideas for a small traditional landscaping in New York.

We created a new arrangement highlighting the Freesia Flowers at the center. Azteca Liriope and foxtail ferns create a plant border. At the rear, the Japanese boxwood will grow and form into a nice semi private hedge. Rosemary was planted throughout the front landscape for a nice scent as you sit on the front porch.

A clean-cut bluestone border frames a rectangular lawn and echoes the soft lines of boxwood hedges in the distance. The line of thermal bluestone expands to form a dining patio where a table of warm ipe wood makes a striking centerpiece. Photo by George Dzahristos.

This yard was transformed with a 450 sq ft paver patio built using Lafitt Grana large style pavers and a 6x9 charcoal colored border paver. Natural stone stair treads used for steps down the hill. For the stepping stone walkway we. used 24"x24" natural stone Pennsylvania Blue Flag with granite gravel. Landscaping included Baby Gem Boxwoods, Muhley Grass and Emerald Goddess Liriope.

A container of pink caladiums introduces bold pattern against the clipped boxwood and green lawn. The planting is refreshed through ongoing garden maintenance to keep the Jefferson Avenue landscape responsive to the season.
