Dry stack stone edging, lush plantings of Evergreen Native Scrubs, Italian Cypress, Magnolias, Salvia, and Daylilies surround the home and frame the private sitting garden. A garden lined with matching Blanco Flagstone was built and an expansive lawn was installed covering the entire property. A raised area with Liriope ground cover was used to add interest.
