Reclaimed hollies into trees provided space for color.
The holly bushes were pruned using a technique called "limbing up". The result was two 2 holly "trees". This provided a more spacious and airy feeling which the client desired. It also provided a sunnier space below for desired perennials and herbs. The end result was a layered look with 4 seasons of color. Italian cypress were added on each side of the hollies in groups of 3 for an Italian flair.
