From left to right notice the raised garden beds, clean gravel garden bed surface, the raised core ten garden planters, custom in line drip irrigation, the espaliered fruit trees against the fence, the forty five degree belgard pavers and the fragrant plants. Rick Laughlin, APLD

Blending a modern sensibility with traditional architecture, this garden features a front yard meadow with native grasses (Carex praecracilis) and wildflowers. Poured-in-place concrete pavers in a meandering pattern slow the approach from the sidewalk to the entry. The modest backyard has been maximized for entertaining with outdoor dining and seating areas. Native plants, herbs, and edibles share the back garden beds, and a raised pond brings the garden to life.

Secret Garden vibes! This brick-walled courtyard creates the perfect setting for growing herbs, veggies, and flowers. The four raised beds provide 160 square feet of growing space, and arched trellises at the entrances beckon visitors in to explore the plantings.
