Do you think it's an accident the gravel drive and raised bed, below, casually touch? Why isn't there cobblestone or brick edging?
Why is the focal point, above, placed exactly so? Why is the focal point of a subtle color? Why is there so much 'empty' dirt? This is a transition zone from the wild wood to the formality of the home, to the right of the gravel drive. Curious?
Each stone must be placed in relationship to the landscape. Each stone will tell you how it wants to be sited. Which is its top, side, bottom. Do stones talk to you?
As the tree grows its roots take life from the land returning beauty. Simple grace, form, function, and powerful..
The flowers 'just touching', and in relationship with, the stone, the tree.

The statue, tree, & stone, above, near the frontdoor of a home. The statue is on axis with the frontdoor. The tree, stone & flowers are subsidiary focal points to partake, if you're observant.

I cannot divulge this landscape. The owner has hired me to write about the home & garden. Once the owner's timeline is complete I'll trumpet details & pics.

Garden & Be Well, XO Tara
