Secluded Pocket Garden

A hidden wonderland perfect for entertaining, this garden began as a shady, cramped and unwelcoming space.  Building off from the existing deck, I moved the stairs to the center of the garden and had reclaimed wood retaining walls built.  A brick and wood patio diverted waste when the house remodel revealed a surprise chimney in the walls.  More importantly, it expanded the usable space of the garden allowing for evening cocktails or lingering Sunday brunches.  Lush native plant selections and an existing row of mature Podocarpos lend a woodsy air to this magical space in the heart of San Francisco.
