Deep Roots Landscaping

In the front on the house we used the recycled stone for the planter edging. The edging is about 6 inches in height with curves only and no straight lines.

The plant selection was encore azalea “autumn angle white” which blooms twice per year. This will give the house a bit of color in mid spring and early fall. There were nine azaleas total.  We used Radicus Gardenia next to the front porch. The Gardenia will welcome the home owner and guest a great smell in June when they come to the front door.  The bloom is also white.  We used 7 plants for this area next to the front door.

We used variegated Hosta in the stone planter behind the retaining wall to add a bright color during the summer months.
The rain gutter that removes water from the screened in back porch runs under the retaining wall, flagstone patio and under ground to the lowest point in the backyard to get the water off the property.

Autumn ferns are a great choice for ferns as they are evergreen, love the shade and easy to grow.  Autumn ferns are not a spreading fern they stay in a clump. The Autumn fern new growth comes out in a bronze color.
The rock you see in the planter are small boulders that we used in odd numbers to separate the planter and provide a natural accent piece. This goes well with the stone retaining wall and the stone fire pit.

This planter is right beside the door the comes out of the screen in porch. We chose Niko Blue hydrangea for this planter. You will all so notice the we used odd numbers for the hydrangea . This will add a lot of color to sided of the house. You can change hydrangea color by adding lime to the soil around the plant and have either pink are blue.
