Adding Low-Maintenance, Colourful Gardens Around Pool

Project Year: 2012
Budget Range: < $5,000
Location: Stratford, Ontario

Our client wanted to add lots of colour to pool area. However they also wanted low-maintenance landscaping.

As such, we added added large, natural stone (supplied by the customer). In addition we planted lots of perennials in different sizes and shapes and with different peak blooming times so that there are different items of visual interest at different times throughout the season.

Perennials used include ornamental grasses, Coral Bells (Heuchera), and Siberian Bugloss (Brunnera).
