FRONT YARD TRANSFORMATION with Rain Garden

Year 2

Year 1

planting year

Overhaul of an entire front yard after the client had a new retaining wall installed. The design included new perimeter and foundation plantings, sod pathways, and a rain garden bed as the visual and ecological centerpiece of the front landscape. The project qualified for a rebate from Montgomery County’s Rainscapes Rewards program.
