The Well Tended Garden maintains a variety of urban gardens. Scroll down to view photos of some of the gardens we have designed and currently care for.
Townhouse Garden, Old Town Alexandria, VA:
This garden wraps around an historic Federal style townhouse. Vertical space is enhanced by espaliers of roses, pyracantha, camellias and crabapple trees.
Brick walkways run from the rear gated access to the front garden gate, beds are intensely planted with perennials on either side of the walkway and boxwood line the allee to the front gate. A lovely bronze and marble fountain is set into a gravel bed defined by boxwood.
