Exuberant perennial plantings frame the trees and provide seasonal interest—Nepeta flowers and Little Bunny grasses bloom in early spring followed by a flurry of summer color from Agastache, Perovskia, Lavender and Gaura.

Framing the teak porch at the entrance to the house, the Moon Garden is comprised of a series of white blooms that reflect the light of the moon. White Digitalis spires weave through Gardenias and Ranunculus, with light groupings of White lavender and Geyser White Gaura providing a backdrop to seasonal Anenomes and Rose blooms.

Moving through the house, windows frame the foreground of perennial plantings and pull the eye out to the greater vineyard and the hills beyond. At the pool patio, a Valley oak anchors the patio and is accented by smaller scale Chitalpa trees that emerge from the teak deck and stone patio. Set within the patio is a smaller garden, filled with fragrant citrus and mint. The pool edge is softened by a larger perennial garden that bleeds into the vineyard and brings butterflies and hummingbirds to the edge of the pool.
