LANDSCAPE RENOVATIONS

Project 5: Customizing a
Landscape in Sun City Lincoln Hills
These homeowners wanted to customize their front and rear
yard landscapes.

We achieve this in the front by introducing new hardscape
features (pots and trellises) and by adding more color with
flowering plants. These changes bring dramatic results in a
low-cost way.

The homeowners had built their own dry stream bed in the rear
yard. We bring in large boulders and use the existing cobble to
create a custom waterfall. We move the crape myrtle shrub out of
the foreground because it is too tall for where it is located in
the landscape, in effect “stopping one’s view”. Many of the
plants in this yard are transplanted and almost all survive due
to the years of experience this landscape construction company
has in working with and understanding plants.

AFTER |
The new flagstone patio with decomposed
granite joints makes for a much more usable yard. First
we retain the hillside with moss rock boulders, which
serve also as a seatwall behind the patio. In order to
bring the cost of the job down, we order and have
delivered all of the materials for the patio, then the
homeowners build it
themselves. We always try to work with
homeowners to make their dreams comply with real life
budgets!
