This disturbed construction site was transformed into an upland bluestem meadow with crabapples, junipers and sumac. We revealed the underlying bedrock in a new alpine court garden that includes a mountain palette of junipers, sweet fern, as well as a thyme lawn. A new Goshen stepping stone path connects the home to a woodland trail leading to the Taconic Range. Partnered with Garden Tenders on the planting plan.
