What a lovely outdoor space with the elegant white pergola covering this home’s front porch and the French-style garden where bouquets of pastel-colored tulips delightfully contrast with the soft blue-green shutters of the house! Pergolas are really beautiful additions to the garden, whether they are used to train flowering vines, shade a patio, cover a passageway, or create outdoor rooms. Aside from its architectural interest, the pergola in this vignette provides a stylish transition between the indoors and outdoors.
The 3 beauties sunbathing in the late spring border, are tulips ‘Dreaming maid’, ‘Menton’, and ‘Maureen’. I wish AHBL Landscape Architecture would give the same treatment to my own space!
