Here it is December, and in South West Washington it has been a long cold spell. We are going on something like 10 days now of teen and twenty something temperature. It got me to stop and think of spring. How every thing pops out of the ground and puts forth a display of texture and color. Maybe the plants are saying, “I made it”. Any way, I am very glad that I can positively say, “This cold and starkness will go away.” It is the way of our earth.
In this blog, I thought I would show some spring and summer landscaping photographs of plantings. Ground covers, summer perennials, and basic planting jobs. It will at least help me get my mind off the thought of nature taking a rest. I like nature when it is busy. I like our company when it is busy also.
Below is a photograph of a front entry water feature.

The photo below is in the early summer with black eyed susans making their appearance.

The next photo is of a water feature and stream area after 5 years of good maintenance after we installed it. I love when the ground covers start working their way into the stream and water falls. It makes the stream appear more natural.
The next photo is of a portion of a back yard that is from one end to the other in ground cover and plantings.

The video is of a job we installed. The plantings are after one year. We did also install the paver path and all the landscaping.
