Lamp post garden

Every garden has some kind of focal point. Here, lamp post becomes the point of attraction. The garden looks pretty in night when soft light falls on the plants.

We started this project in late summer of 2006. This garden bed had 3 different plants in the design. An outer edge of evergreens to define the bedline curve and inner rows of flowering perennials.

Kallay juniper forms a good evergreen groundcover. It has a cascading layer effect which softens the garden. White swan coneflower and Moonbeam coreopsis have repeated blooms throughout the summer.
