Homeowners Amy and Jack love their historic neighborhood. They have a charming home, but their overgrown yard needs help. They want terraced, formal gardens. Host Joe Washington introduces landscape designer Charles Hodges, who has designed an elegant, charming yard to match the home and neighborhood. Hodges transforms the driveway into a rose garden. He installs a gray flagstone patio on the right side of the yard closest to the house. New stairs coming down from the deck lead to a flagstone walkway that separate two areas of the yard. Also installed are terraced walls, fountains, an herb garden and a rose garden.
