Urban View Living--Project Pics Show Fresh Planting
The stairs flanked by pots for herbs lead to a curving pathway. It ends at the sunken circular stone terrace and a fire bowl. The 3 arched trellises form a doorway between the newly planted garden and the view terrace with a retaining/seating wall. The large water pot feature baffles the urban noise. The open grid swing trellis matches the rose trellis and echoes the chicken coop architecture. Clematis, Star jasmine vines and roses will grow up the grids--the first purple blooms show in the picture! The expansive view is enjoyed from everywhere. Berms around the terrace and inside the curve of the path create visual interest and the feeling of moving through the landscape. Down cast path lighting creates safety at night with a minimum of light pollution. The huge sequoia tree is softly lighted for night interest. The original fence will be soon be covered with many flowering vines.
