Bluff Garden

One of the first things that pulls your attention  is the view of the Ozark hills and the lake.  As you move into the garden, you become aware of the rock work and the unique living wall.  Throughout the garden, native rock is laid to create patios for relaxation while large berms house perennials, grasses, and annuals.
 
 

Gardening takes a lot of water--most of it in perspiration

Perrenial gardens are in constant bloom when planted carefully.  The result is a new garden every few weeks as various plants reach their prime at different times. Obviously, a garden which continously blooms requires a knowledge base from which to develop a plan based on plant's growth characteristics.

Take your time strolling around the grounds.  Numerous small gardens are tucked into the landscape.

The pond and surrounding rockwork provide the framework for this sun loving garden.
