Colorful Border Plantings Beside Pavers

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.

Large Stone Pavers With Creeping Thyme

Large format pavers are seen with small plants growing in between them. Creeping thyme was planted between the stones for its ability to withstand light foot traffic, thrive with minimal watering and provide color and texture in summer, fall, winter and spring.

Stone Slab Staircase With Flowers

Large, locally sourced stone slabs set amongst moss rock boulders connect the lower patio to the upper terrace and tie the landscape to its views of the foothills by creating a natural staircase. Purple flowering plants are planted around the steps, enhancing the natural look.

Colorful Shrubs and Perennials Under Trees

Hydrangeas were used beneath the understory of many of the mature trees for their tolerance to shade. Perennials such as penstemon, yarrow and grasses, which are more conducive to our Colorado summers, were planted for their color and lower water requirements.
