Brookfield Landscape

 

This small back yard, which is located between the house and a concrete patio, was previously lawn with a small rectangle vegetable garden in one corner.  The vegetable garden was relocated to the sunnier side of the garage by the homeowners (not pictured). The new landscape includes: 
  • A small area of lawn edged in natural stone for ease of  mowing. 
  • A garden with native plants attractive to birds surrounding the lawn area and a gravel pathway through the garden. 
  • A new birdbath/fountain,
  • And a rain barrel for filling up the birdbath, and watering the new plants and vegetable garden. 

The homeowners have commented that the backyard looks larger now.
