Backyards can be and should be enchanting places.  With the right seating arrangements, sunshade, landscaping, and water element, you can transform any space to be magical. No matter the time of year, being outside (glass of wine in hand, of course) with great conversation or even a good book can feel like a mini-vacation from our busy lives. In our latest series, Backyard Bliss, we’ll be showcasing each week some of the most luxurious outdoor spaces around Nashville for your ultimate inspiration for creating your very own backyard oasis.

Favorite feature(s) of your space:

The colors of the perennial garden along the back wall are so appealing to the eyes. They really enhance the garden’s overall elegance. We, of course, love the garden house and raised gardens that we work with our grandkids in.

How you most often use the area:

We enjoy sitting out on the deck to eat our lunch or dinner. In the late afternoon and evening, it is really relaxing to sit out and watch the birds and the deer that make their way into our backyard.  The gradual change of color in the low-maintenance perennial gardens is a constant source of refreshment.

The one thing you plan to buy or add this season:

Infill of the perennial garden with additional plants.
