These large stone steps gradually slope down the naturalistic, flower-filled landscape on this Colorado property. In keeping with the informal qualities of the property, mature trees and a carefully chosen plant palette compose and maintain the naturalistic setting.

A stone pathway leads to the lower patio on this Colorado property - featuring a firepit, natural flagstone and an assortment of perennial plantings. The naturalistic landscape is filled with mature trees and towering evergreens. The backyard's grass is bold and green.

Stone steps lead to a stone paver patio with an integrated firepit in this expansive backyard. The upper terrace is a vantage point that invites visitors from one level to another and offers views of the landscape, its scale and the depth of botanical plantings.

A combination of salvia, dianthus and potentilla soften the natural edges of the flagstone patio. The colorful flowers make the perfect border for the large-format stone paver walkway. Between the pavers is creeping thyme that stays colorful throughout the entire year.
