Garden of the Week visits Los Altos Hills in the Bay Area of California to take a look at a project designed by Connie Lefkowits. This elegant front yard garden is designed for both beauty and practicality. The space had to work for active children (evidenced by the basketball hoop in the drive way) meaning lots of foot traffic and errant basketballs. It is a long narrow front yard and Connie defined the space with some wonderful stonework near the street. A massive Deodar Cedar dominates the area and the design weaves its tapestry beautifully around it. The long driveway which would overwhelm most garden spaces is redefined in stonework and ground cover to soften the appearance.
