Gosh, the pathways are gorgeous. I would love to have something like this in my own yard. It's absolutely lovely. http://greatlandtree.com/landscaping-service

Love your landscaping!

- What kinds of foundation plants did you use? It looks really nice. Thanks!

Thank yo for the comment - closer to the front door we used American Boxwoods as foundation plants, they are behind the Annabelle Hydrangeas on this photo. For the remaining foundation areas we used Otto Luyken laurel (Prunus laurocerasus).
I hope this helps. Thank you!

I love this installation. After summer, do you prune back the hydrangeas so the boxwoods show the remaining seasons? I've heard one has to be careful when pruning hydrangeas not to prune off the buds for next year. I'd appreciate any input, thank you!

What type of trees are in this photo?

Hi Julie, the trees used to frame the courtyard are the Yoshino Cherry (Prunus x yedoensis), it produces white to pink flowers with a light almond-like fragrance.
I hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions.

What Houzz contributors are saying:

1. Know the rules. Many HOAs limit everything from fence type and height to how much siding can be on your home’s facade, so it’s no wonder some also spell out how much lawn you should have and what your foundation planting should look like. Pay special attention to bylaws, and ask a committee member if you’re not sure what the statements mean. Be tactful when asking, and keep it simple and positive, such as: “I’m thinking of improving my landscape and would like to know what this clause refers to in regard to flower bed arrangement and plant type.”
