A fun project in California

Today ’s photograph are from Thea Chacamaty , who is a designer withJanet Moyer Landscapingin San Francisco .

She says,“Here is a garden we designed , installed , and still maintain in the Lower Haight area of San Francisco . Its main focus is its pond surrounded by full blooms and winding pathways . This garden was a immense transformation , and very fun to install .

“ One of the features we added was a sitting region on a raised platform where our customer could model and enjoy the garden from her favorite hot seat or from the flagstone terrace . We total a nerve pathway leading around the garden to make a meandering flavour . We also put in a smart drip irrigation system to carry through pee and meter maintain the garden .

“ The plant life we chose are intended to attract bird and butterflies : wild lilac , artemesia , iris diaphragm , cat mint , lily - of - the - vale , various herbs , fuchsias , azaleas , and many others . We also put water lilies in the pond and surrounded it with sea pink armeria and iberis . ”

What a relaxing space , Thea . Thanks so much for portion out it with us !
