707 Elliott Ave (back) - Contemporary Garden

Click the pop-out button in the top right corner of the image to view a full-sized version, zoom in, and download.
This contemporary garden offers a contrast of hard and soft foliage textures; the path gently flows through the garden of low growing ornamental grasses and structurally shaped succulents which offer visual interest and evergreen color throughout the year.

Garden Highlights

  • Low maintenance planting design
  • Rainwater is collected from roof downspouts and directed to swales to replenish the ground water and encourage soil microbes
  • Plants chosen adapt well to both full sun and part shade conditions which can be a small garden challenge
  • Permeable pathways to sink the rainwater into the soil
