Island Landscape

We make Islands.

Island beds, that is.

We did the landscaping around the house right after it was built, and then James when back two weeks ago and created this interesting piece.

In Progress

Finished

If you think that this island looks good, but don't know why, here is why I think it does:

• Natural Rock Walls give the bed solid definition, which is very important for landscape areas that are not 'attached' to a house or structure.
• Good size plant material. Small plants in a big bed tend to look like short jeans on a tall man.
• Proper color matching. Your wife can explain this theory to you.

Disclaimer: The author of this blog had nothing at all to do with the design or installation of this island bed, other than paying the person who did. Therefore the author is not inflating his head by stating the above points.
