rather than being purely utilitarian space of passage, that the garden is an invitation to slow down and breathe a little more deeply. rich green ferns and other shade plants line the gravel road, while single round "stepping stones" are surrounded by Mexican black pebbles and filled with low plants in shades of chartreuse green moss.
