2020 Parade of Homes Best Landscaping Award
Project Type
New Construction
Date
Fall 2020
This landscape design won an HBATC Best Landscaping Award in 2020.
The homeowners wanted:
- space for entertaining
- dramatic water features
- a wide variety of plants, both deciduous and evergreen
- a fire pit and hot tub near the home, but in a more private location
The main entertainment patio off of the sunroom/dining room provides ample space for anything from small gatherings to large parties. The patio boasts two large waterfalls built into a 6' tall planted mound. Native basalt stone was used to construct the waterfalls and retain the mound on the backside. A dry riverbed winds around from the front yard, drawing visitors to the main patio before terminating at the fire pit patio beyond. A nook for the hot tub was created on the backside of the waterfall mound.
Plantings around the waterfall mostly consist of a variety of flowering perennials to provide a riot of color during the growing season. A variety of grasses add texture and movement throughout the property. Evergreens are strategically placed to provide winter structure and greenery.
This was a fast-paced installation with a tight deadline and it all came together wonderfully!
