It’s been a while since I had a update, this season is coming to a close
I have been working on a addition to the house for The last 18 months or so
I’m just about to get finished with it .
I had to take a little time to trim out the green house before colder weather sets in .
All the doors and windows are salvaged from the remodel .

Very nice! I love the curvy bridge and sinewy path, and those mops of Japanese green grasses. The darker and light foliages bounce off each other. Very Japanese - y!

The greenhouse upcycle is lovely.

The Japanese maple silhouette above the Koi pond and the water source are master-strokes. When can I visit? After Lockdown!? LOL!

May I ask what these plants are? I have a smaller maple tree in my new garden.
Would love to see if I can follow your style, if you don't mind...

I never tire of viewing this serene sanctuary.

what a nice slice of the planet.

and the architecture anchors the setting stylishly well.

The white plant is spirea in bloom, the green ground cover is vinca

I see. Thank you! I live in zone 10a.
I looked up spirae and vince. Looks like vinca should be fine, might be too cold for spirae.

---- edit. clearly I misunderstood USDA zone system. I'm a newb! haha.
Spirae will definitely work as well. so happy.
