Obviously we still need to find some boulders to edge the pine tree, but you get the idea.įrom the very beginning, we had a few landscaping problems to solve: I asked Emmett to crawl onto the roof to get a couple aerial shots to make it easier to see the overall plan.
Knowing what I prefer will help you understand why and how we landed on the following plants. I do love florals, but in a neutral palette: whites, blush pink, pale yellow, etc. If we lived in a different climate, then maybe- but it just doesn’t feel right with our yard and home. I’m not into red, bright pink, or orange roses / hibiscus, for instance. If I’m going to have anything floral, I don’t like it to be overwhelmingly bright. I think they feel safe to me because they’re neutral and textural (two things I really crave). I prefer lots of greenery and structured plants… think boxwoods, hedges, topiaries, and screening plants with a very english feel. I thought it would be helpful to breakdown our thought process and link everything! Click through to see how we landed on our backyard landscaping design and future plans we have in store…
Lots of readers have asked about the types of plants we used and why we selected certain items for our backyard. Luckily, Emmett is really spectacular in this area and he takes care of most of the landscaping for us. I’m not going to lie- I’m not the strongest when it comes to landscaping design.
