Just dirt and a few rocks were on display at this residential entry. The client wanted year round color in foliage. This would be a project that would be installed in phases. The first phase inserted brick under the front bench similar to the brick on the house and eventually edge the sidewalk in brick as well to help hold back soil from the existing berm the client wanted to keep. Adding some shrubs of dwarf golden Euonymus and Rainbow Surprise Coprosma adds texture and year round color with the added bonus that with winter chill the Coprosma will take on a bright reddish pink coloring.
In the first phase the client had brick installed in the bench area and planted the Rainbow Surprise Coprosma in Fall.
Phase two, in late Spring, included the dwarf Euonymus and bark mulch. The Coprosma grew during the winter and spring.
