This is an example of a mid-sized mediterranean drought-tolerant and partial sun courtyard brick retaining wall landscape in Phoenix for summer.

A cool shady spot even on a hot day! Is it possible to have a space for entertaining, relaxing, hot-tubbing and growing food? A space where dogs can play and kids can have water balloon fights, all within a low-maintenance and low-water framework on an averaged-sized Soquel lot? These clients wanted it to be possible and I believed that it was. This garden embodies all of the above with areas for growing veggies and fruit, a trampoline for kids and a playable low-water grass alternative that never needs mowing! The variety of bright flowers provide year-round color and lots of food for butterflies, bees and hummingbirds. On the southwest side of the home, a large arbor and vine create an inviting shady spot to dine alfresco on warm evenings. Another arbor covers the hot tub that has adequate privacy due to a flowering vine that hangs generously down. In the front of the home, tall plants provide a nook for the stamped concrete patio that is not visible from the street. A perfect spot for morning coffee while watching the hummingbirds.

The black-bamboo fencing was attached horizontally on an existing stockade fencing for support to create the Asian effect. A raised planting bed was created using the bamboo in the meditation area. This area was created to have a space that their Mastiff dog wouldn't enter.
