this is a garden for the ages. you climb up you climb down, you cross a suspension bridge, walk on a mosaic that spoils you with a foot massage — and then gives you spectacular views of puget sound. . #apld #apld19 #iamapld #gardentour #gardendesign #landscapedesign #englishstyle #landscapedesigner #terracedgarden #gardenstairs #suspensionbridge #pugetsound #seattle #pnw #gardenphotography #shotoniphone (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0cbbUcAOQy/?igshid=1tyw2l8fwqiqt

this garden by seattle-based designer @scoteckleyinc would be the one for me (minus the pizza oven). the material choice is bold and harmonious. the attention to detail in design and execution is breathtaking. what would i have done differently? the lawn. and the polycarbonate(?) pergola roof. . #apld #apld19 #iamapld #gardentour #gardendesign #landscapedesign #englishstyle #seattle #pnw #moderngarden #contemporarygarden #gardenphotography #shotoniphone #landscapedesigner (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0cYVExgcbL/?igshid=1heykghadckjz

so many impressions, so many ideas, so many gardens. a garden tour packed with inspiration for plants and materials, and how to put them all together. i saw: a suspension bridge, chinese granite, humour wells, a man-high plant pot, a steel pizza oven, and lots and lots of superb plants... . thanks to my fellow @landscapedesigners for putting on a fantastic programme today and throughout the conference. now to cool off the slightly overwhelmed mind, here’s a picture of three birds. . #apld #apld19 #iamapld #landscapedesign #gardendesign #englishstyle #gardentour #seattle #pnw #gardeninspiration #designinspiration (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0cQCM4AMZe/?igshid=11ozsorgdzwt7
