Camano Island Garden Project

Camano Island has amazing views into the Straits of Juan De Fuca.  This lovely custom home is perched on a bluff overlooking the San Juan Islands. 

Objective:

My client wanted a lovely garden with good hardscape and large entertaining space.  Salt, wind and sun were elements that create a pretty tough spot to garden. Laying out the spaces came first then the drought tolerant, salt tolerant, and erosion resistant plants went in.   Artist touches of Mosaic, water pots and beautiful stone work all blend together to create a warm welcoming space for clients and visitors alike.  A satellite bench in the middle of grasses on the edge of the cliff provides a private spot to drink a glass of wine and watch the sunset.
