Design ideas for a large traditional full sun backyard landscaping in New York.

This Seattle couple was wanting to transform their small city parcel into a useable, kid safe garden. Terrain worked with the designers to install a low maintenance yard that provides year round color and interest. A small pottery water feature highlights a bluestone dining area that is bordered by two beautifully pruned fruit trees. The entire yard now has a stunning cohesive look and feel that continues to give an excellent return on investment.

All weeds were removed and beds were edged. Landscape beds were cleaned up and prepped. Plants were fertilized and pruned as needed. Annual flowers were installed across the landscape and 6 yards of premium brown dyed mulch was installed to enhance the landscape!

Stone spheres, which were previously located throughout the garden, were pulled together into this vignette to introduce the illusion of movement to a static garden space. Ball-pruned boxwoods were inserted into the cobblestones to repeat the shape of the spheres. Additionally, blooming hydrangeas reinforce the shape. In the background, 'Evergold' carex provides a textural background to the vignette. Photo by Jay Sifford.
