Less than a year ago, Liz Preyer asked the owner/designer of Elysian Fields, Carole Meyer, if she could help create a welcoming and intimate garden for her ECO/Bunglalow home. After Carole’s architect husband, Scott Meyer, built a cedar fence to frame the small lot, an exciting explosion of desires and ideas began to unfold! Small dwarf trees, evergreens, conifers, and flowering hardwoods soon arrived, followed by a layering of unusual bulbs, perennials and textured, aromatic groundcovers. In the back of the house, hand cut stone “rooms” made spaces for raised beds, a meditative fountain space, and another area for outside gatherings. Liz reflects, “This lush, but tiny, tender garden/oasis has given me, as well as the many walkers, cyclists and friends, great joy, ease and rich satisfactions with its ever-changing wonderful gifts!”
