5942 Waterman DOUG & MARGUERITE COREY “Thirteen years ago it was all gravel’ says Marguerite, “but now we soak up the view from the screened-in porch where we live when it’s nice enough to be outside”. And what a view: masses of multi-colored azaleas and impatiens punctuate brick-paved seating areas which invite quiet contemplation; a dwarf apple tree springs up from a bed of hosta; the garage is dressed up with shutters and window box, and an antique trellis (rescued by their son) screens this low maintenance and inviting shade garden from the alley beyond.
It looks fine from the ground, but imagine the bonus view every morning from the second floor porch to fully appreciate the design of this garden.
