Mystery

Mystery is a landscape design tool. Does a garden keep you walking to see more? Exactly. That is mystery.

Thru the camellia blossom/hedge a pruned peek-a-boo vista into my patio.

Hmm, what will you look like walking your garden pondering more mystery? Ha, neighbors will think you're walking slow with that peculiar look on your face again.
.
Sometimes I sit in my neighbor's frontyard to simply gaze upon my garden.

  2. You hit on 2 of my favorite pattern: 111. HALF-HIDDEN GARDEN 120. PATHS AND GOALS, While were at it we can add 134. ZEN VIEW and 112. ENTRANCE TRANSITION: "If the transition is too abrupt there is no feeling of arrival, and the inside of the building (or garden) fails to be an sanctum."

  3. All about what's just around the corner, isn't it? A little mystery sets the stage for a fantastic garden landscape.
