A SAFE HAVEN

Designedas a habitat restoration and enhancement, the landscape was a collaboration made to include four areas of emphasis. The front yard was designed as a food forest including a cluster of citruses near the street to share with neighbors, and a variety of other edible plants for foraging. The planter beds surrounding the terrace soften the entryway and serve as a Kitchen Garden with herbs at easy reach for cuttings. A “Belgian fence” espalier of pomegranate trees serves as a focal point at the entry, showing off this ancient super fruit. A small hedge of tea camellias buffers the guest parking area which can be harvested to make both black and green tea. The remainder of the landscape is a Wildlife Garden showcasing native plants that provide food as well as offer medicinal purposes. The rear yard is shaped to capture and infiltrate rainwater from the roof and driveway preventing flooding, erosion, and pollution.
