How wonderful to be walking down a residential street in a large city and come across a garden so exuberant that it spills out onto the sidewalk and resumes on the other side!
In places, the flagstone paths include cool ceramic tiles made by an artist friend.
On either side of the entry stairs are these beach collections.
I'm fond of this idea! What a great way to remember a special getaway!
Very nice combination!
As we travel around to the back of the house, the garden takes on a more natural and restful feeling.
There are still elements of civilization but it's hard to believe we're in the middle of the city while immersed in this oasis of green.
Gabriella and Henry were very kind, even moving the sign in pages (and yummy treats) inside the house because it might have rained at some point.
On our way out, I couldn't resist taking a picture, with her permission, of this fellow garden tourist whose coat matched the bush on the left!
