As with all gardens, mine is ever-changing and evolving, so if you've never come by, or it's been a while, please come see what I've been up to. As ever, plantings emphasize foliage, form and texture, and are designed to deliver a steady seasonal flow. Small is BIG here: I've got a variety of functional and living areas packed into my small lot. The front slope is bounded by a crisp steel and stone retaining wall and the parking strip garden is framed by raised beds made of curved flat-bar steel, woven in a sinuous, basket weave pattern. On the upper level is a stone patio, surrounded by plants. Go deeper into the garden through a narrow space along the south side of the house. What was once a driveway is now a plant-filled garden, framed by a curvaceous steel border. A well-integrated detached structure in the back garden serves as my studio and guest space. The back garden is built for outdoor living, with three separate areas for people to enjoy. The garden has been featured in a number of national publications, including 'Fine Gardening', 'Sunset Magazine,' 'Better Homes & Gardens,' and others.
