SAMPLES OF GARDEN
DESIGN / LANDSCAPE
Potager Design
TIDY FENCING
 Design period details into a food garden to link to a house
with historic charm.
When a home is historic, or merely vintage, bring this character
into the food garden with picket fencing and beautifully crafted
wood towers that double as treillage for climbing vegetables.
 Steel pipe planters
 The long time problem with raised beds constructed of
wood is extensive from earth-to-wood contact that
inevitably rots out.
 The weight of the soil inside raised beds becomes
even heavier when saturated, causing wood
planters weakened by rot can fail during the rainy
season.
 The reason for introducing steel into this
application is to avoid future replacements with a
visually appealing alternative.
 However, this may be fine in cool climates,
but further south steel absorbs tremendous
heat during the day.

 This prevents the soil mass from cooling


down at night, subjecting the root zone to
abnormally high temperatures around the
clock.
