Taking it Easy Informal Garden

The informal garden, which is not dependent on straight lines but is more free-flowing, is truly adapted to the family-friendly California lifestyle. The landscape complements the home with a pool at its focal point. The house and garden are free flowing in true California style, both are informal, easy, and low maintenance.

The tempered glass on the backyard looks out at the view of the natural landscape. This home was designed for care free entertaining, offering plentiful patio and deck space, and low maintenance plants for resort style outdoor pool area.

The backyard allows plenty of room for friends and family; patio is simple, with lots of open space for the active kids. The permeable meandering path is perfect for bikes and toys. A roof top garden was proposed for the play structure.

The plants used in this garden are heavenly bamboo, lion tail, bulbine, red hot poker, bird of paradise, yucca, agave, aeonium, lavender, ceanothus, western redbud, toyon, and Kleinia.
