Glebe house in Ottawa
Traditional, Ottawa
Spring arrives in the backyard, with a burst of flowering fruit trees and lilacs (viewed from the elevated deck). Space is at a premium in this central city garden. The garden is extended vertically through the use of espaliered and semi-dwarf apple trees as well as horizontally through borrowed diagonal views. The border shown is actually sloped downward, facing SW, and forms a sun trap during the clement weather. The E property line bisects the slope, but the boundaries are blurred through a prolific planting.
