About the garden
Minimize

This garden began it's transformation in 2007.  We wanted to update the look of the home, make it more welcoming, and create a garden that was both beautiful, and produced food for both birds and the family.  Since the garden is on a south slope we chose native and drought tolerant plants and added a thich mulch after planting.

About the garden
Minimize

This North Vancouver garden began its transformation in 2004 when we began clearing the existing soil of weeds and adding new topsoil to improve texture and fertility.  After several mature trees were carefully lifted in with an excavator we planted the front with native shrubs and groundcover and drought tolerant grasses.   The following year we extended the planted area to include the west boulevard and the private rear garden.  This garden features  native and drought tolerant plant additions, as well as a food garden with drip irrigation, fruit trees and a beautiful sculpture by a local artist. The pictures of the finished garden were taken in the spring of 2007 and the fall of 2006.  This home was featured on the North Shore Natural Gardens Tour in 2007.
