A Home for Buddha

A client contacted me to discuss creating a garden bed for her beautiful 3.5 foot Bali lava stone buddha. The client wanted a variety of flowers and tall grasses to fill the area in and create a peaceful, softly moving environment full of summer colour.

Grasses, flax, shasta daisy's, echinacea, kangaroo paws, lupine, russian sage and a butterfly bush were planted around the buddha and a black lace aka smoke tree and jasmine planted behind the buddha along the fence. Hen and chicks, fescue and ground cover was then planted along the front of the bed and the grassy along the bed re-seeded.

This lucky buddha will be surrounded by beautiful colour and soft flowing grasses for many years to come and I can't wait to see how the garden bed looks as the plants mature!
