Changing Seasons

Change is inevitable in a garden, every seasoned Gardner knows this.

Seasons change, plants change, people change, it's all a part of life, hopefully the change is good.

As in the case of one of my clients who decided to change her front entrance, it was a good change

 Center pieces for the container planting.

I received a call from this client who was in need of some fall container planting

for the changing season.

"Of course"

To my surprise, my client had just recently had a new walk way put in and the metal containers were now on brick pillars.

This is defiantly a good change.

 At this new height you are able to see the great details of the containers, something that was lost before

when these were placed on the ground flanking the walk way to the house.

This change lifts them to eye level, now they can get the recognition they deserve, also the scale of the containers works, they looked undersized before.

The new walk and pillars also give the front entrance a more formal look, note how the color of the containers is picked up in the new walkway. I love the way the Hydrangea trees not only work as a backdrop for the containers, they also frame them.

The Hydrangea's are stunning

Embrace change
