Fire circle

This garden was the setting for a local CBS TV  affiliate’s home remodeling show .   This garden had many spaces that were distinctly separated by vegetative garden walls.  The theme of the fire circle area was Appalachian mountains.  The plantings consisted of Hemlocks, rhododendron, ferns, callicarpa, sweetshrub, native groundcovers, and several 100 year old Northern red oaks.  The benches are from local quarried sandstone, the firepit and outcrops from local moss rock boulders, and the walkway from local pea gravel/river rock.  Springville, Al.
