A layered New Orleans front garden pairs mature crape myrtles and palms with evergreen shrubs and low groundcovers, creating depth beneath the shaded canopy.

Opening up this front entrance by adding a 14ft Sylvester palm tree along the driveway and layered planting throughout the front makes for a clean but colorful tropical space. Landscape designed and installed by Construction Landscape, Jennifer Bevins 772-492-8382.
