Grass free yard in So Cal
Hi all,
I am looking for some "brainstorming" ideas for my backyard landscaping. I live near Pasadena. I think that is Zone 18 (?) I have a "pool size" yard, surrounded by block wall, with a few trees (only 1 lemon tree can't be moved) and it's down at the end. I started out wanting to do a flagstone patio in the center to extend the usability, then plant "shady" stuff all around the patio to keep it cooler. (e.g. http://www.redwoodhollow-lajolla.com/flagston.htm) But I am open to considering other materials for the patio (still undecided), so this is one subject I'd like your thoughts on (Well, two - patio type and plant ideas and experience) Then I thought - why not just get rid of all the grass, I just do more plants etc.... But I don't want to flagstone the .whole thing (too much $$ I think) Please share experiences/thoughts/links on this. Thanks |
