Entangled
While your eyes glide along the water's edge, the everchanging reflections present serenity within the entangled branches of this garden. Along bluestone pathways, connecting intimate outdoor rooms, stand sculptures that provide direction and empowerment. Dappled light, cast by various trees and bold structures, is brightened by perennial swales and seasonal planters, making for any gardener's delight.
