A Formal Great Falls Landscape Outdoor Living Area/Design Build

The client recently moved to Great Falls, Virginia, and was enthusiastic about having additional space to develop a more elaborate garden. We designed a formal garden, consisting of four levels: an upper lawn terrace, boxwood hedging, a perennial border, and a European beech hedge to separate the space from the other areas in the garden. The lawn terrace also featured a reflecting pool. Steps lead down to a second terrace featuring an Armillary sphere and a pea gravel walkway flanked by Annabelle hydrangeas, and then to a parterre garden filled with heirloom roses and boxwood hedging. A central fountain and two arbors also complement the space. A lower lawn area includes a pergola sitting off in the distance.
