Planting Ideas For A Mediterranean Front Yard Landscape
This picture of the finished Mediterranean front yard landscaping is from the street looking toward the home and far right of the yard. It shows how we used the Feather Reed Grass to frame the view of the Russian Olive and retaining wall. Of all the pictures I took of this landscaping, this is one of my favorite views.
Take notice of the many textures in this picture. While the landscape is very simple and repetitive in its planting ideas, the different textures add so much interest and contrast.

Our choice of plants here is a mix between what I know will work in my area and a few new discoveries.
- The tree is a Russian Olive
- Ornamental Grass is Karl Foerster Feather Reed Grass
- Pink Verbena
- The green mounds are Rosemary
- The light gray is Lambs Ear. As I said before, we won't be planting any more of this because it is so invasive and gets very large in our area.
