Rolling Planters move with the sun

Rolling planters present an opportunity to grow flowers and edibles in places never before possible.

2 Sided Landscape - Hidden vegetable garden in front yard

Vegetable garden in front yard can not be seen from street.

Plant food, not lawns. Pretty front yard salad gardens

This salad garden is positioned in the sunniest part of the front yard in an area that is hidden from the neighbors. It's visible from my driveway and all windows across the front of the house. These edibles plus others scattered thru the front yard are combined with flowering shrubs and perennials that attract beneficial insects and pollinators. The plants occupy 90% of the space with only 10% remaining lawn.

Edibles are fun with "Food Head Fred". Let's get creative with food!

Ideas for vegetable gardens, kitchen gardens & edible landscapes.

"Food Head Fred", by artist Elaine Callahan, helps me to look at fruit and vegetables in a different way. Just as this artist presents tasty tidbits in ways never before imagined, I strive in my designs to combine food into the landscape. Vegetables, herbs and berries can be planted alongside flowering shrubs and perennials in any sunny to part shade niche in the landscape.

Small patio in Cobb County gets attention!

So excited to have been interviewed today for a potential article to be featured on HGTV.com. We talked about how to make small patios special. The Cooper alley project caught their attention due to the high level of detail and it's special appeal.
