Dig Your Garden Landscape DesignLovely plant combination of Loropetalum and Coleonema (Breath of Heaven). These are two great plant combinations that don't need a lot of water and provide nice leaf color and textures throughout the seasons. Located in a Sleepy Hollow/San Anselmo garden in northern California. Other plants n this garden include Phormiums, native Penstemon, Snow in Summer, Lambs Ears and other colorful plants that create a beautiful low-water tapestry of groupings.

Jackie and the BeanstalkThe large alcove houses a giant AC unit which was visible from the street. This gate that leads nowhere allows access for servicing or removal of the unit. The bioswale is constructed of a Geo Grid to allow a dolly to remove AC unit if and when it fails. The beautiful rain chain filters rain water from the roof into the bioswale so the water remains in the garden and not down into the storm drain.
Archer ServicesBrick pavers create a winding drive that shows off a variety of raised stone beds, mature trees, Italian Cypress trees, flowering plants, and shrubbery nestled amongst lush grass. What a welcome home each day!

Front Yard Description:
This beautiful formal Mediterranean Estate is presently up for sale (please refer to info above).
The entry features a circular driveway of interlocking pavers that leads to the 5 car garages. A formal Terra-cotta tile entry with traditional Mexican tile step faces guides you to the front door through mirrored columns adorned with planted pottery. The planting in the front yard is formal Mediterranean with boxwood, roses, cypress, blue agave, bird of paridise, palms and magnolias. The landscape lighting really brings the space to live at night!
Ornamental Gardens by LisaA new paver entry with red wood "bridge" to go over the dry river bed that captures rain water. Differing sizes of cobble provide interest for the different areas of the landscape. A low stucco wall divides the front yard into a public and private space. The private space includes a fire pit, seating area, and flagstone path.
Ecology ArtisansRoof rainwater harvesting front yard landscape. Used to be turf grass, now planted with California natives like yarrow, ceanothus, manzanita.
Kaiser GardensThis is a California xeriscape succulent garden. Clients wanted color and texture with drought-resistant plant materials. They enjoy garden sculptures, so we included a Buddha and a Roman bust planted with succulents. The previous owners of the property left behind some old San Francisco cobblestones, which we incorporated into the new design, using them as garden steps.
We built low, raised beds out of stone, also existing on the property, and used containers along steps and against existing concrete walls to soften the hard surfaces.
CaliScape Landscape ServicesSucculents are an easy, low maintenance way to spruce up your outdoor, or indoor, spaces. These plants require very low water usage making them a perfect plant for the southwestern United States, or for the plant lover who is constantly forgetting their watering can.
