Native Edge Landscape
These homeowners were looking to up their hosting game by modernizing their property to create the ultimate entertainment space. A custom outdoor kitchen was added with a top of the line Delta Heat grill and a special nook for a Big Green Egg. Flagstone was added to create asymmetrical walkways throughout the yard that extended into a ring around the fire pit. Four rectangular trellises were added along the fence and shed, with an all metal pergola located at the back of the pool. This unique structure immediately draws the eye and adds a playful, artistic element to the rest of the space. The use of various sized rocks, gravel, and flagstone give a rough texture that creates a symbiosis with the metalwork. Silver Falls Dichondra creates a beautiful contrast to the rocks and can be found all over the property along with various other grasses, ferns, and agave. A large area of gravel rests on the side of the house, giving the client room to park a recreational vehicle. In front, a privacy fence was added along one of the property lines, leading into a drought resistant, eco-friendly section of yard. This fence, coupled with a giant boulder, doubles as a safety precaution in case drivers miss the turn and run into their lawn. This updated landscaping adds an effortless flow for guests to move from the front yard to the back while creating a very open, welcoming feel to all who enter.

Here is another view of the Xeriscape installation. We also installed the fence you can see in the background. The owner made a wise choice with this type of fence. With its open style, it gives the impression that the garden is leading to grounds on the other side. It also works to make the adjacent grounds appear to lead into the garden. This is a very low maintenance landscape design, and the drought-resistant plants make it a perfect choice for those long hot Texas summers.

When we first visited this garden it was almost impossible to measure to the back as there was a laurel hedge about 3 metres deep by 3 metres high. The sides were dominated by thick leylandii hedges. The garden was already on two levels created by huge boulders and there were slippery decking clad steps up to a scrap of lawn that was difficult to mow. The client wanted to open it up and modernise it to tie in with a new modern kitchen renovation. We took out all the hedges and fences and created a sleek modern look with rendered retaining wall, raised planters and a slate patio outside the kitchen.
