Tiered Stone Terraces with Purple Lavender

A decomposed granite path leads past stone steps and tiered limestone retaining walls forming garden terraces planted with purple lavender, ornamental grasses, and flowering perennials beside a stone house in daylight.

Design notes

Classic landscaping layers hedging, perennial borders and lawn around clear axes and focal points — a fountain, a bench, a view. Brick or stone edging keeps everything crisp.

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
