The boulder retaining wall was the focal point of the . Made from local, natural stone boulders, the boulders support a stone wall which creates both durability and stability while maximizing the natural essence of the property. The wall performs two functions; it retains the soil to prevent erosion, and it creates individual terraced zones to maximize usability of the space. The terraced landscaping consists of rich, multi-level gardens with a wide variety of native plants that are well-proportioned and hardy. The distinctively selected plants are beautiful and provide color and texture throughout the year, providing stimulation for local wildlife and biodiversity. The terraced gardens are further enhanced by natural stone paths that wind through the terraces providing access and beckoning visitors to view the exciting garden spaces.
