Hawthorne Neighborhood Shade Garden

This front yard "glow-up" was a true collaboration with the homeowners. Their home had been lovingly restored by them over the years and they wanted the garden to harmonize.

The primary walkway was widened, curved and beautifully poured with a tinted concrete adding warmth and a welcoming feeling. We addressed a drainage issue by installing a dry well and added a rain chain in a non-problematic downspout area. Drip irrigation is set on timers to help establish the new plantings with plans to taper off water usage. A birdbath boulder captures rain and reflects the upright maple tree while adding a place for birds to visit.
