A Color-Packed Country Garden

This Southern gardener filled her yard with charm and personality.

Arbor, Overall View of House

 

Frame Views

The Komiches built a spectacular country garden in Georgia surrounding an 1850s log cabin. They've highlighted the cabin by framing it with a rustic wooden arbor.

Test Garden Tip: Use arbors, fences, and even trees or shrubs to highlight key elements in your yard. Here, the arbor's pointed shape mimics and frames the rooflines of the cabin -- creating the perfect view.
