Desiree has surrounded the side and front of her home with a wonderful variety of conifers, both large and small, anchoring their home to street level while adding amazing textures. She has created an Asian feel to her garden using her flair combining colors with her exceptional use of small conifers. Mixed in with the conifers are maples, rhododendron and hydrangeas and a magnificent tall Fagus Sylvatica ‘purpurpea pendula’ (weeping beech).
The front corner of the yard features a waterfall and koi pond with lilies and pond plants. This sunny garden has lower plantings to allow you to look beyond to the view. Through the arbor you come to a gate that leads to the elaborate backyard kitchen garden and a shade garden.
You’ll find much to enjoy back here from the wall of espaliered Asian pears and potted columnar apple trees that are 6-7 years old, having blueberries in a pen with metal netting, to her using pieces of rock interplanted with sedums and Irish moss creating patterned walkways. Enjoy this complex and elegant garden.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”All Gardens” color=”primary” align=”center” link=”url:%2Fcategory%2Fgarden-tour%2F|||”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
