No. 109 Landscaping · Tropical
Terraced Stone Walls Beside Gravel Pathway
A gravel pathway winds between terraced dark stone retaining walls filled with tropical planting, ferns, and potted orchids toward a timber-clad pavilion overlooking the ocean.
Design notes
Tropical landscaping stacks canopy palms over broad-leafed shrubs over groundcover, with water and warm stone woven through. In cooler climates, hardy look-alikes deliver the same layered effect.
What to look for
- Three layers: canopy, shrubs, groundcover
- How hardscape and planting share the edges
- Plants suited to the climate, not just the photo
