Bold Colors and Textures for Emergency Services

We love to take care of those who serve our community, and when awarded the contract for this project, we were thrilled.  Thrilled not only for the chance to give back to those who serve, but because of the bold design of the planting scheme.  It is a great example of what creativity and skill can accomplish when faced with simple areas.

 

The bold colors and various textures of the plant material give the landscape a festive feeling, and work very well against the deep red brick pavers and masonry walls.  Working around the police and fire departments while they were open and on active duty posed several logistical challenges that we met with creativity and enthusiasm.
