Garden Ideas
For long-blooming perennials, consider some of the plants pictured in the border shown here, such as ‘Becky’ shasta daisy (Leucanthemum x superbum ‘Becky’, zones 5 to 9), ‘White Cloud’ calamint (Calamintha nepetoides ‘White Cloud’, zones 5 to 9) and ‘Rozanne’ cranesbill (Geranium ‘Rozanne’, zones 4 to 9). Note: These will be perennials in most climates, but not all.

Terracing ideas
Terracing idea from above. Patterns with turf not for our job
Not successful, too much going on
Like geraniums in pots--may be too rustic for the house
Fun idea bur maintenance must be a drag
Bocce court idea, use of retaining wall is boring, much prefer other steps to bocce area
Rolling lawn
Too barren, love the pots
Water feature with height but don't want pool of standing water
plantings under oak
Interesting patio
patio w square stone
Olive trees and boulders
