A waterfall, simple stonework, and a collection of dwarf conifers prove you don’t need flowers or bright colors to create a perfect garden scene.

But… bright colors do have a place in this garden! Tropicanna cannas (Canna ‘Phasion’) and warm-hued mums flank the main entrance to Inniswood.

A ruined brick wall surrounds a quiet, secret garden, perfect for kids or anyone needing a moment of peace.

Bright annuals in containers and perennial borders in front of the former home of the Innis sisters.

A gazebo completely covered with sweet autumn clematis (Clematis terniflora, Zones 5 – 10) frames a view of a sunny perennial bed.
