Garden Makeover Overview

This garden makeover transformed a bare front yard into a low-water, low-fuss garden built around a feature grass tree. The photos follow the project from start to finish: the cleared and prepared soil, the new layout being set out with black edging rings, the planting of succulents and agaves, and the finished garden with white pebbles and black river stones.

A front garden makeover like this works well where lawn is hard to maintain or where the owners want a neat, modern look from the street. The combination of contrasting pebbles and sculptural plants gives the garden structure all year round.
