St Johns - The Alma Ave

Outline: St Johns - The Alma Ave Completed by Wheel & Barrow Landscape Design & Maintenance The St Johns - The Alma Ave is located in the charming Sheboygan County. Representatives from Wheel & Barrow Landscape Design & Maintenance approached this with confidence and delivered results that will serve the family well for many years. This particular featured a detailed design that merges the beauty of nature with modern elegance. The patio is made of natural stones and is comprised of flagstone quarried from a local source, which maximizes longevity while contributing to the overall design. Accompanying the patio are perennial gardens that have been carefully thought out and organized; the gardens provide year round blooms and color. The plants are native to Sheboygan County to ensure that they will perform better over time and require less maintenance. The garden also adds to the visual appeal of the property while adding sustainable practices as the plantings are recognized for their environmental importance while providing visual appeal by inviting local insects, wildlife, birds and butterflies. The property had several compelling challenges, particularly unlevel terrain. The team relied on their experience to achieve the proper grade of the landscape, existence of drainage that ensured the property is level to create the base of the patio and garden beds. These careful decisions improved the overall landscape design while preventing potential damaging effects of water on the property. A native stone retaining wall was also utilized to not only assist with the sloped landscape, but to also add interest into the final design as well as provide frame and elegance to the outdoor space in the evenings with built in lighting. The finished outcome is a remarkable landscape that our clients will be proud of for years to come. A functional blend of hardscape and softscape, the St Johns - The Alma exemplifies craftsmanship and thoughtfulness. Wheel & Barrow Landscape Design & Maintenance is proud to have collaborated on this and provide an outdoor space for the family to enjoy for many years to come.
