Show-ready seasonal color

GALA_gold_judges_choice_web 2

This client is a high-end condominium and they want their flowers to look show-ready at all times.

This design uses a wide variety of plant material, with varying heights and textures, to achieve a layered and bright eye-catching display.

There were several opportunities to enhance the existing landscape by expanding flower beds and revamping existing areas. This is a mature property, which comes with mature trees and roots. It’s important to understand not only what the plants do and how they perform, but also the particular struggles of each area of the property.

This long bed has varying sun and water requirements and is a focal point on the property. Heights of caladium and cleome are a colorful addition.

Park-Avenue-07_after_web

A flower bed was added along with several enhancements to an extremely shady area. This space greets owners as they come in and out of their pedestrian gate.

This bed uses several textures and colors to showcase the main sign. The bright purple from the ruellia and lime of the coleus make a bright and colorful addition.

The winter version of the sign bed uses several varieties of flowers and the lavender erysimum always makes such a statement.

This bed is located in a median with a crape myrtle. The bed is very shady and the water is difficult because of the roots. The rose whopper begonias stand up to the challenge and perform beautifully all summer.
