Ponte Vedra Beach Shady Yard Oasis
Barbi, a Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida homeowner, struggled for years to cultivate a welcoming atmosphere in her shady yard. Seeking a solution, she contacted Rockaway and was immediately impressed by Landscape Architect Kathleen Burson’s expertise and attentiveness to her design preferences. The result? A transformed shady yard oasis that Barbi is thrilled with!
A Vibrant Greeting
Let’s begin our tour at the front bed by the street. Here, a vibrant mix of shade-loving plants has been carefully curated to create a welcoming scene. Delicate holly ferns with their fluffy fronds provide a base layer, while azaleas will burst with colorful blooms each spring. Mature loropetalum, a Florida favorite, adds lush, evergreen structure with minimal maintenance. The existing curved bed lines were preserved, creating a cohesive look that complements the natural flow of the yard. The brand new turf will be greening up as it grows, completing the refreshed space and offering a welcoming street view invitation to the property.
