HILLSIDE GARDEN SANCTUARY - SAN ANSELMO, CA

Project Overview:​ 
This vast hillside in San Anselmo, Northern California, with dramatic hillside views, has evolved over the years and is the personal sanctuary of Landscape Designer Eileen Kelly, owner of Dig Your Garden Landscape Design. This sustainable garden also serves as Eileen's "living laboratory" where she observes and learns from the habits and growth of her extensive selection of plants. They include hundreds of varieties of low-water and low maintenance plants. Some appropriately nestled below the majestic oak trees, others that thrive in the sunny spots and others in shade. The plant palette ranges California natives to plants from other Mediterranean regions such as South Africa and Australia, as wall as an extensive  variety of succulents and a few exotics from Hawaii and other regions. ​ Several patios and sitting areas have been incorporate to enjoy the natural setting and the lovely views.
Design Details:
  • ​Stairways, pathways and patio areas throughout the landscape offer places to pause or linger to take in the natural surroundings and views both up close and in the distance.
  • Diverse plant varieties, including CA natives, succulents and plants from other Mediterranean regions offer an abundance of biodiversity and ecosystem for the birds, the bees and the butterflies. ​
  • Retaining walls constructed with Sonoma fieldstone, patios, decking and a variety of seating areas with bluestone and other natural materials.
  • ​Decomposed granite (DG) and flagstone incorporated in the pathways and patio areas.​​​
