She does design well, incorporating both contemporary and classic elements so that's why I think her modern aesthetic works...it's not over the top. Clean straight lines, indeed...love those!

I too love the level change, it is something to really think about when designing a new (or changing an existing) garden, it's so very very effective. The nooks rock, I agree - it adds depth and mystery. Hey Loree...how about a post on color in your garden? :) Or maybe Anna and I can invite ourselves over next year for a photo shoot !

I'm generally not a fan of modern design, but Loree implements it so tastefully and her plethora of plants balances the clean, straight lines and stark materials.

Despite all those marvelous plants and the masterful juxtaposition of their forms and textures, my favorite part of Loree's garden is still that subtle, elegant level change, the little "nooks" off the lawn, and the dual duty shade pavilion which create correlating rooms within the whole. And her use of color is worthy of its own post - inspiration at every turn!

No disappointment there. Contrary to her claims (above), she had to have used great restraint and discipline in planning the bones so she could go crazy-wild with the plants.<br />Which came first? Lila or the gray/black/silver background color scheme? Whichever, she rules the roost quite fashionably.rickiihttp://bannersbyricki.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-665807378090241608.post-20376769920950000432014-11-13T10:52:15.856-08:002014-11-13T10:52:15.856-08:00Oh Tamara thank you!

Sadly not hardy but oh so worth growing. My attempts getting cuttings to root all failed, so one of the last things I did before the weather changed was to cut and dig the plant, we'll see if I can get it to live through the winter indoors.
