Garden District, Formal Whimsy

This New Orleans landscape brings together classic Southern structure with seasonal movement and color. Strong architectural plantings such as Emily Bruner Holly, Camellia Japonica, and tree-form Ligustrum provide height and formality, while Japanese Magnolia and Viburnum add softness and seasonal interest. Drift roses, azaleas, and loropetalum contribute vibrant color throughout the year, complemented by ornamental grasses and butterfly-friendly selections that invite movement and wildlife. Ground-level textures of cast iron plant, ligularia, and carex complete the layered design, creating a garden that is both refined and ecologically vibrant. Through thoughtful landscape design, installation, and maintenance, the property balances structure with beauty for year-round enjoyment in the New Orleans climate.
