Capitol Hill Front Yard Renovation
The right front bed of this property needed a fabulous tree for ornamental interest. A Crape Myrtle 'Sioux' was used for this purpose. Cotoneaster 'Scarlet Leader' flanks the edges of the wall and is a multi season plant with small pinkish white flowers in the Spring and berries in Winter with reddish stems. A mix of grasses and various blooming perennials (Candytuft, Phlox, Salvia and Japanese Anemone) provide continuous interest and blooms from Spring through Winter.
