THE FAMILY GARDEN

A backyard family playground complete with outdoor living area and firepit, designed and installed by Blouch's Landscaping, kidney shaped pool, designed and installed by Valley Pools, boulders for jumping off and plenty of native plants to share with the birds, butterflies and bees. My client wants to grow as many native plants as possible to create a diverse habitat for local wildlife. She and her family also appreciate a seasonally rich palette to enjoy while swimming, lounging and relaxing. After completing the backyard pool area, we have since expanded more gardens around her home including a new front garden and walkway, installed by Living Landesign, Inc. This garden continues to be a wonderful collaboration with my client, who enjoys learning about native plants and continues to inspire me with her progress and dedication! Truly a family/team effort in adding over 75 native plant species and counting!
