A Majestic Walkway
This lovely serpentine bluestone path with plantings of different heights, textures, and colors, creates a wonderful experience and feeling as we wander along it. The ingredients to this beautiful path? A couple of hydrangeas, graceful ornamental grasses such as Maiden Grass (Miscanthus sinensis) or Fountain Grass (Pennisetum alopecuroides), the massive lavender-blue blooms of Catmint 'Walker's Low' (Nepeta racemosa) and Lily Turf (Liriope muscari), some brightly colored annuals to jazz up this walkway from summer to fall - and the talent of Liquidscapes.
