Last week, & for decades, the driveway was the focal point of this landscape.
Now, Urn/Plinth are a focal point on axis with the front door creating Pleasure Grounds.Urn/Plinth are quite large, the house is deceptively large with its 10' height at terrace level.
Most important, the Urn/Plinth can remain empty, or be planted.
.
The quiet elegance of the Urn/Plinth are jewelry in the landscape.

Jewelry a bit out of her comfort zone. Enough to mention to her grown children it should be taken by one of them when her estate is dispersed. You do remember what to ask yourself when buying a focal point for the garden, "Is this so wonderful it will be fought over at my estate sale?"

Garden & Be Well, XO Tara

Yes! Don't do it / buy it for your garden, if people won't fight over it at your estate sale. AMEN!
I must remember this when someone, including the owner, cheapens their outdoor spaces and land.
Brilliant, as usual, P. Barbuda.
Dear God...that's beautiful.

I am happily reading your posts with the tag 'pots'. I like the criteria: the pot looks as good empty as it does filled. This one certainly does!
