Seaside gardens like those in Nantucket need strong plants that flex with the wind and don ’ t need a lot of support . The environment is salty and windy , and the deer and rabbits are hungry ! Amy says , “ The perennials I selected are predominantly animal-resistant . This was the main criteria , followed by size , aesthetic , and bloom color . In addition to being the designer , I manage the maintenance of the garden , so I can truly say these plants are easygoing .”
Amy incorporated Munder Skiles ’ Wharton Collection furniture which sits perfectly given its natural appearance and timeless vibe . The rounded , flowing form of the pieces seamlessly plays into the rose arches and curves found throughout the garden .
