The Family Jeweled Garden
Dream Big!
When we work with a new client, we are really setting up for what will be – not what exists at the present. New gardeners may not be able to see ahead months, years or at best the finished paradise in their mind’s eye. This is the benefit of a well thought out blueprint. But keep in mind ‘the blueprint’ is only a guide and once the process begins, the energy of plants and people working together may change or alter the plan. Mediocrity is intolerable.

This 20’ x 12’ screened gazebo is large enough for the whole family to dine al fresco without insect bother. To save some budget we laid it on top of existing concrete pool deck and then mortared a square cut natural sandstone carpet inside.</span>','','thisisthelink300','nowaythisistaken300'))
