Nothing but an expanse of asphalt before, the entry to this Dash Point home was less than inviting. By removing the fence panels, asphalt paving, and a lot of gravel and bad soil, I opened up this entry garden to the existing koi pond beyond. Large boulders were set in place along the new flagstone paths, a wood porch built over the concrete slab entry, drainage, lighting, and lush plantings were added to create a welcoming entry.
