Notice, below, the color echo? Wonder where the axis leads from the paired entry? Garden design tenants are rife: spikes with rounds, all layers accounted for sky-canopy-walls-floor, contrasting textures, mystery, repetition, copied, color theme, change thru the seasons, low maintenance, maximum pollinator habitat, no chemicals needed, a historical template.

Does your garden tell me who you are? This one does, as all good gardens must.

Under the Tuscan Sun, Frances Mayes, her sister asked, "Have you seen her house." Frances knew, she's asking, "Who is she, what is she like?"

Hydrangeas do great in pots. Choose mopheads, PeeGee, Tardiva, Limelight, etc.

Worried about hydrangea's brown sticks in winter? Move on from that chapter, it's too shallow for you. Good Garden Design backdrops normal changes thru the seasons in beauty.

Focal points change by the day.

At the front end of studying the best historic Garden Design across Europe I 'got' that.

If you want this type of Garden Design, I can do that for you.
.
If you want a Garden Design to meet HOA requirements, and no more, I will not do that, anymore.
.
If you wish to push your HOA rules to the max, and have to ask for approval, I will be happy to do your Garden Design.
.
Understand, I've blown thru chapters and books, and continents, to get here with Garden Design.
