The astilbe in the far left; except not pink whites, purples, reds are good
Like the lighter/variegated foliage of this perennial.
This is Tsuga canadensis 'Cole's Prostrate'. Nice, but don't know much about it.
Mugo Pine - slow, mounding is good. Generally like all mugo's I've seen.
This is cool looking foliage/texture: Lindsey's Skyward Bald Cypress
Liked this conifer as well: Skylands Oriental Spruce
Like thus conifer: Globosa blue spruce
Lots of interesting conifer specimens here. Center, near top of image, the light green/yellow one with short needles and rounded branch shape
Kevin likes the cap to this wall; Kelly likes both. This is called Celtik Wall, according to Houzz. What would be the price difference between a poured concrete wall with cap and something like this?
Big leaf Podophylum pleianthum Big, tropical-looking leaves on the left. Don't know how big or invasive these get, but like the look of them
Hardy impatiens 'Eco Hardy' Impatiens Omieana. Love this. Saw it downtown at City Hall in their planter box. Have been trying to find it (on wish list) at Portland Nursery. Evergreen variety.
Liked this different yew I saw at Portland Nursery (cannot remember variety). Upright, vertical, evergreen
Like the look and feel of this low conifer. Not sure exactly what it is.
Or this wall...
Closest thing I can find to what Kevin likes re: wall
Flapjack plant succulent
Impatiens (New Guinea preferred) and Calibrachoa as color annuals
Color plant options
Low, but not invasive, (and low maintenance) ground covers
Wood fencing treatment options to hide the a/c unit and complementing water feature
Wood fencing treatment options to hide the a/c unit
Liked the raised walkway effect; almost floating
Color, square/rectangle shape variation, bordered with same-shape rectangles (would do sand in between pavers, not gravel)
Like how the path opens up at the walkway
Smooth edge, different shaped squares/rectangles, low vegetation softening edges
Planting bed as though it were part of the walkway (almost).
Curved path with squared elements and uneven edge line
Shape
