CHANTICLEER INSPIRED

Inspired by the textures, colors, and playfulness of Chanticleer Garden, this garden is designed with long-blooming perennials in shades of blue combined with foliage that ranges from red-brown to chartruese.

Boxwoods, Magnolia, and Sky-Pencil Hollies provide evergreen structure through the winter, but dwarf Winterberry add a pop of color among the brown perennials in the off-season.

This garden was so much fun to design and even more fun to watch through the seasons and years.

Nepeta 'Walker's Low', Salvia 'Mainacht', Agastache 'Blue Fortune', Heuchera 'Palace Purple, Ilex 'Sky Pencil', Magnolia grandiflora 'Teddy Bear', Caryopteris 'Longwood Blue', Baptisia australis, Alchemilla mollis, Nassella tennuissima, and more.
