Western DuPage Landscaping, Inc.The goal of this project was to provide a lush and vast garden for the new owners of this recently remodeled brick Georgian. Located in Wheaton this acre plus property is surrounded by beautiful Oaks.
Preserving the Oaks became a particular challenge with the ample front walk and generous entertaining spaces the client desired. Under most of the Oaks the turf was in very poor condition, and most of the property was covered with undesirable overgrown underbrush such as Garlic Mustard weed and Buckthorn.
With a recently completed addition, the garages were pushed farther from the front door leaving a large distance between the drive and entry to the home. This prompted the addition of a secondary door off the kitchen. A meandering walk curves past the secondary entry and leads guests through the front garden to the main entry. Off the secondary door a “kitchen patio” complete with a custom gate and Green Mountain Boxwood hedge give the clients a quaint space to enjoy a morning cup of joe.
Stepping stone pathways lead around the home and weave through multiple pocket gardens within the vast backyard. The paths extend deep into the property leading to individual and unique gardens with a variety of plantings that are tied together with rustic stonewalls and sinuous turf areas.
Closer to the home a large paver patio opens up to the backyard gardens. New stoops were constructed and existing stoops were covered in bluestone and mortared stonewalls were added, complimenting the classic Georgian architecture.
The completed project accomplished all the goals of creating a lush and vast garden that fit the remodeled home and lifestyle of its new owners. Through careful planning, all mature Oaks were preserved, undesirables removed and numerous new plantings along with detailed stonework helped to define the new landscape.
Clement Walsh Landscape Architect, Inc.Beside an existing paver patio, a large rain garden filled with shade and water loving Pacific Northwest native plants were installed that the dry stream bed and the lawn drains into. As the native shrubs mature, the fence will be softened and extra privacy will be given from the neighbors. A river rock border encircles the rain garden and it's lined with a steel edging to keep the stone in place.
A new paver brick walkway was designed to lead off of the existing patio and to connect with the back yard deck.
EcoRegionsSituated on the University Lakes in Baton Rouge, LA, these homeowners were initially looking for a fence to contain their two dogs. Several conceptual designs and revisions later, we arrived at the concept that was constructed.
The homeowners have an 80+ year old Live Oak in the backyard that they wanted to be a feature of their new outdoor oasis. They also wanted a spa to be able to use year-round for themselves and family parties.
With the focus being on creating a New Orleans-style courtyard and preserving the fantastic specimen Live Oak, a sideyard courtyard was born.
Private Gardens, Public PlacesAnother container design, from another year, for the French urns in front of the house. This design features trellised jasmine, surrounded by the flowering froth of impatiens, lobelia, helichrysum, and ivy geraniums. It bloomed beautifully from Memorial day, deep into fall. Behind, notice the pergola and lattice added to complete the front facade design and tie both ends of the house together. Also, the brick and bluestone mix nicely together.
