The Chen property, Season 2

It's so wonderful to watch a property evolve over time!  Yvonne has a fantastic sense of design & loves flowers.  Last year, Rooted Landscaping facilitated some big shifts.  We installed a trellis to add interest to a blank wall on the front of her fabulous house, re-designed a unique bed out back, & converted the previous owner's dog kennel into a shaded patio.

Season 2 and the honey-suckle is climbing!  We're staying on top of it to ensure it doesn't spread.  It's offering tons of fragrance as Yvonne and her guests pass in and out of the front door.


Heuchera capturing light in the back bed.  Soaker-hoses were installed to keep maintenance manageable.  These plants are happy.


Native plants attracting beneficial insects.  Salvia is a fantastic plant-- bright color, easily maintained, and attractive to butterflies.


Have you been wondering who's been making us look so good?  This guy.  Mike Hrinewski has become Rooted Landscaping's in-house photographer.  (Funny to say because by day he's an attorney.)  Any photos in posts tagged Mike Hrinewski are his work, otherwise, they usually come from Kevin's camera.  If the photos are really terrible, they may be mine.


Stay tuned as the garden grows!
