Italy / Florence / 01
The focus on this Italian style garden is on hardscape evergreen shrubs, termed the "bones" of the garden and Mediterranean herbs and perennials. While flowers are planted, their function is as an accent.
The Outcome
One of the most important characteristics of this style is the use of evergreen shrubs meticulously sheared into short hedges. Such hedges line the hardscape walkway, serving as its edging.
