Inland
San Diego Country geatures jagged, rocky terrain. This garden was deigned
by the Wiley Group, Landscape Architects, to compliment the natural beauty
of the site. Children love to scramble and play among the boulders, and
planted pathways give adults a restful retreat. The owners, Jim and Fran
Melas, love to entertain, their annual Greek Easter Party wass captured
in the photo.
In this part of the garden, a tiny recirculating
cascade streams among the rocks. It can be turned off at will. In the
background is a shady pavilion to escape the midday heat.
The project is now several years older,
and the trees now provide pools of coolness where walkers can pause and
sit, and enjoy the breezes and the birds that come to splash and search
among the rocks. |
