GARDENS
Depending on where you enter the garden , your experience will vary , but both are spectacular and have the water feature centralized . Perfectly at home in the whimsy , the water feature is a French 19th century copper cheese vat . In its new life , it serves resting birds and delivers sensory stimulating water sounds which are both in contrast and in unison with the sound of the nearby crashing ocean waves .
Locally designed steel rose arches provide a shady area for sitting and a dose of nostalgia . Amy planted Rosa “ American Pillar ,” a vigorous rambling rose , which is disease-resistant and tolerates salt spray . “ This rose is abundant with clusters of dark foliage , a pink / white center , and showy yellow stamens . It ’ s a classic rose , and a go-to for me as it ’ s guaranteed to cover a space quickly ,” says Amy .
