5851 Waterman RICH & VENITA LAKE Living here since 1974, Rich and Venita had 3 garden goals: lawn for their two dogs, a quiet deck for themselves built low on the ground for privacy, and willingness to experiment over the years with different approaches for the borders.

Most recently, they have developed a “butterfly” theme, planting herbs; basil, sage, mints, etc), colorful annuals and perennials, while saving the sunny spot in front of their double garage for tomatoes.
