Jody Palmer – Fresno

About this Garden:
Featured on Valentine’s Day, this garden utilized the two existing trees on the site and neighbors’ “borrowed” landscape gave it a mature feeling.  Gravel paths invite you to walk through drifts of old roses and grasses, with unusual plants added for elements of surprise and seasonal interest.  Abutilons, floral carpet roses and Boston Ivy flank the hand troweled gold stucco walls. The front gate opens into an entry courtyard with flagstone walkways.
