Last Monday , we featured a garden Jay Sifford designed in North Carolina , and things got just a small bit het up ( nothing major , but a brief dramatic event . ) It lead Jay a little nervous to take another garden , but one of his clients talked him into it !
Jay says this client is fearless , so here goes … Jay says,“I finished set up the initial factor of this lakeside garden earlier this leap . The homeowners , Art and Kim McCulloch of Cornelius , North Carolina , enjoy a lifestyle of cozy elegance . Kim is quite artistic and whimsical in her approach to life , which made this garden all the more playfulness to contrive .
“ The distance is filled with a contrast of hopeful sunlight and dark shadows , which urge on me to use a works roof of the mouth of bright pea green , dark burgundy , and beautiful blues to balance it all . The stonework is by Ponders , a local ship’s company . I came in after the induction of the gemstone to tie it all together . My strategy revolved around mass plantings and deliberate repeat to make an encroachment in such a large space . ”
