When we bought our house, we had a 150-year-old (or so) oak tree that provided shade for most of our cul-de-sac. This is what our side yard looked like when we bought our house.
Our neighborhood has been hit hard by oak wilt, and the previous owners treated our oak for it. Sadly, it didn't work. The tree died and we had to have it cut down. As a result, that area was in full sun and the ground cover got fried over the long, hot summer. So then we had an ugly dead zone.
We called Zach from Yard Farm Austin, and this is what he and his crew did.
We're facing the opposite direction now, but I think you can tell what an awesome transofrmation it is. I'm looking for cobalt blue bottles to go on my new bottle tree.
Here's a close up of the circle.
I'm also looking for some awesome chairs and maybe a small glider to go in the circle for seating. I would love to find some like these (photo borrowed from Design Sponge's sneak peak of Penny de los Santos's house in Austin).
Hopefully I'll be successful on my treasure hunt. I can't wait to put the finishing touches on the awesome work Zach and his crew have already done.
