Using Hardscapes in the Garden

This house is one that I admire from a distance each time we make our way to the local sandbar. Their gardener uses either creeping fig or jasmine to add interest to the retaining wall which probably hides the pool. They've chosen to use dark colored foliage in the palms and hedges. Silver succulents are sprinkled about to add interest. Nicely done. I wish I was their gardener.
