The first thing that struck me was that the hardscape had totally disappeared. But what took its place was such beautiful growth that I think it's an improvement and it presents a mystery as to what's behind/under all those plants. The most successful visual aspect is the layering - the relationship from front to back is lyrical, and I love the variety in colors. Yeah, it's kind of Dutch but it still manages to look organic.
Good luck on your move - it'll be fun to start over with more knowledge and in a new place. Don't be a starnger on the board, though - your posts have been some of the most helpful ones, for sure. |
