The new owners of the house inherited a needless driveway right by their front door; our task was to convert it to a secret garden area.
Getting the "bones" in place
The property was ringed by large granite blocks. The first phase of this project was removing the driveway and shifting the rocks around so they became sculptural elements throughout the garden.
Creating around the rocks
Once the rocks were in place we created paths and planting areas.
A road to screen
The lilacs that were attempting to screen the house from the road when we first went to the site were obviously not going to do the job.
A more substantial screen
Evergreens make a much more substantial screening for the clients' yard. (We moved the lilacs to another spot.)
