Historic Charleston Single c. 1870

This extraordinary garden is low maintenance so we created and installed metal edging with Pea Gravel Bed in the Front Elevation that held an Oversized Urn/Pedestal filled with huge pops of color, texture and form that complemented the two Hanging Baskets that offered a dangling array of color as well. This is a classic, simple, timeless garden that offers the most incredible southern plant materials that included Italian Cypress, Yews, Boxwoods, Gardenias, Camellia espaliers that were attached to newly built custom wooden frames with wiring for the tight space by the Driveway. In the Rear Elevation Courtyard, we added a beautiful Brick Patio pattern, a lovely period Water Fountain that was placed on center so be enjoyed from the interior windows. We planted a Magnolia, Japanese Maple, Foster Holly and a unique Magnolia ‘Jane’ espalier underplanted with Gardenias, Roses, Dwarf Mondo Grass. My client enjoyed cooking so we added an herb planting stand for easy accessibility to the kitchen. We chose a Classic Iron ‘Summer Classics’ Outdoor Seating to include a Love Seat, Cocktail Tables and Two Chairs. Absolutely breathtaking…One of my very favorite gardens ever!!!
