My client wanted to enrich the backyard by adding an all native garden. We planted some toyons and coffeeberrys that will grow large enough to cover the back wall eventually. We also added a California native planting area and reduced the size of the grass. My client wanted to keep a small patch of grass for her growing family to play on, so we installed St. Augustine grass as it is mostly a low water lawn.

Raised beds hold organic garden soil mix that ranges from 8" - 2' deep. Here you see a late winter, very early spring view of this salad garden in metro Atlanta. Various types of lettuce, kale, parsley, and chives are accented by pansies which have edible flowers. After our frost date, most of this will be removed. Tomatoes will be planted in the center where the soil is deepest. Basil and mesclun will be planted around. THIS PHOTO HAS BEEN FEATURED TWICE IN A HOUZZ EDITORIAL LINK! Here is the link!
