Lakefront lawn and planting beds around a pool terrace

A curved planting bed carries the whole length of this back garden, holding roses, crape myrtle and clipped evergreens against a manicured lawn. The bed edge is cut to a single continuous line, which is what keeps a garden this size reading as one piece rather than a collection of parts.

The planting steps down to a stamped concrete pool terrace and out to the water beyond. Landscape design, installation and maintenance.
