Landscaping Pictures Mediterranean Garden
This picture of the finished landscaping is from the street looking toward the home and far right of the front 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 plant selection, the different textures add so much interest and contrast.
My choice of plants here is a mix between what I know will work in my area and a few new discoveries. It's basically Lambs Ear, Rosemary, Mediterranean Palms, Pink Verbena, Feather Reed Grass, Russian Olive Trees, Heliopsis, and Blue Salvia.
