Size: Small garden on the back corner of the house, approximately 400 sq. ft.
Needed: Planting to fill and surround a newly build stone chapel area.
Solution: I planned three tall shrubs to balance the height of the central statue area and low, scented ground covers in front of the benches. An assortment of perennials were then added to give this area lots of flower power from spring through fall. To soften the hardscape, three Clematis and a rose were added to climb the stone walls, and three large pots of ornamental grasses were added by the benches.
Date: Planted June 2013
We chose these benches, these juniper, and these pots with these grasses. See more plant photos for this garden on the Depew Gardens Pinterest board in my Wife, Mother, Gardener account.
