Acer Garden Design

Another redo of a tired foundation planting.

We removed virtually everything in front of this once-neglected house, as it blocked the view of the entrance from the street. In addition, we built a new brick and bluestone porch, with a wet-laid bluestone walkway and natural stone steps. A pretty stacked stone retaining wall was built along the driveway. The new front garden has color in every season, from the earliest hellebores in March to the last fall asters in November, with very little maintenance required.
