Garden #1

Sunlight glints on the water from every angle. Weeping willows line the cobblestone drive to a home and garden perched on a finger of land surrounded by water on three sides. Handsome fieldstone walls surround the property lending a sense of history and permanence. Artfully placed terracotta pottery graces the deck and a climbing hydrangea elegantly accents the house. White details on the shingled house are echoed in a charming picket fence surrounding the potager and the bark of the Betula utilis Jacquemontii (Whitebarked Himalayan birch) lining a stone wall. Each architectural element in this garden is thoughtful and house and garden seamlessly transition from one to another in a unified whole.
