We received the landscape drawings and list of plants from our landscape designer and they are wonderful. She has incorporated all native plants and nothing that needs mowing. Those were the two main criteria. In this installment, I will share with you the design for the front courtyard and berm.
This is the front courtyard. The driveway is to the right. The features include:
- Blond flagstone path
- Band of river rock around the foundation of the house
- Basalt stone column sculpture–those are the three black circles on the left on the courtyard
- Basalt stone column path lights–top and bottom of the pathway
- Fountain alter–fountain provided by me
The plants in the courtyard include Dwarf Globe Blue Spruce, Mock Bearberry Manzanitta, Sulphur flower, Rosy Pussytoes and Split-leaf Indian Paintbrush.
The other area of landscaping will be located to the right of the driveway. It will include quaking Aspens, Columbines, boulders excavated from the property during construction, and a cedar stack fence.
Below are some pictures of the plants that will be in this area.
Won’t these look gorgeous fully leafed out and in bloom? In the next installment I will share with you the dry stream bed!
