A Wellington retreat

Wellington, FL

This landscape renovation for a client at the International Polo Club in Wellington, Florida targets “cool elegance” with lots of silvers and whites in the plantings. Overall we focused on exquisite detailing and comfortable proportions over bold colors or forms. We edited an over-abundance of paving with insertions of lawn to break up the pool deck and pull focus through the property to the borrowed landscape of the lake and natural areas beyond. We also edited the plantings and went 99% native with Paurotis Palm, Sabal Palm, Palmetto, Monarch Ferns, Key West Morning Glory, Sword Fern and Blue-Eyed Grass for a wild-life (and grandchild) friendly landscape less reliant on pesticides and maintenance.
