In the foreground, a large dining area for the new outdoor table. The raised patio will be home to a new fire pit and seating area. Newly planted plants will grow in to fill the entire planter bed in a matter of years. Thuja Plicata are planted as a screen to replace the stumps of fallen hemlocks. A beautiful Japanese Maple, originally planted too close to the house, has been transplanted to break up the linear screening plants.
