Six months ago, lawn, and more lawn, and a too narrow path, and the gorgeous laurel hedge were all there was.⁣ Check out the before photo.
⁣
Everything’s settling in nicely. Well, everything except some of the inside-out flower (Vancouveria) that we replaced yesterday with Epimedium.⁣
⁣
The best is seeing almost no lawn resprouting. I know @maidenhair_landscapes has been on the scene. Thanks ladies!⁣ The follow through weeding is essential (and too often lacking) during the establishment phase.

#1, #2, and/or #3?⁣
⁣
Inara hosted a gathering recently and got a good sense of how guests move and collect in her home and outdoors—everyone in the dining room because it’s near the kitchen, obviously! And when they head out for fresh air, it’s the narrow patio to the north rather than the deck that’s attractive. Expanding that patio takes on even more meaning.⁣
⁣
Meeting with her today, we talked about social spaces around the garden and how the dry gravel path under the eaves in design #1 could connect them; we talked about the magnetic draw of the view towards the NE where the Coburg hills descend in a V(would veggie beds in the foreground be the best compliment?); and of plants more natural than bred for show.⁣
⁣
I have a feeling that a bit of each of these three preliminary designs will show up in the final iteration, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 something new!⁣

Such a popular watering hole on sunny autumn days! Goldfinches, hummingbirds, and even a cedar waxwing came to splash and drink. ⁣

Birds are like messengers. I always stop to see what they might be saying. But I’ve yet to receive a message from an evening grosbeak over my morning coffee like Julie has.⁣
⁣
Her new garden, and the fountain in particular, is attractive to many birds. It’s a very peaceful scene. Julie says that even the yellow jackets are relaxed, just cruising along the ground low and curious.⁣

Dirt was flying when I drove up on Friday. Aaron and Freedom are reshaping this little front yard into the Embracing Entry Garden. Tangles of old sweet gum roots, lifeless bark mulch, and a hodgepodge of old plants are gone. They’ve placed boulders, are shaping a berm, and prepping for @rob_hoffman_stoneworks to come work some massive flagstone magic. It’s going to be beautiful!⁣

⁣
To see birds in the fountain, flowers blooming year round, and, especially, to greet the neighbors and welcome them in to visit—that’s why Thelma, age 90, wants to create this garden. She lives with her daughter, a nature lover as well, who added a request for native pollinator plants. And so, this small front yard becomes the Greeting Garden, where all species of passerby are welcome.⁣
