Steven Chow’s Garden

Beyond the three-ringed patio of interlocking stone, your gaze is drawn immediately to the wooden gazebo. Within this shady nook, wrought iron chairs beg visitors to sit and forget the worries of the outside world. The sound of water tumbling down the rough slabs of a rocky waterfall helps to soothe all your troubles away. At the side of the pond, at the base of the water, a racoon stands frozen for all time. After you leave this oasis refreshed, wander along the minimalist lush green lawn, smooth and banked by beds of flowers. An interesting design, it combines water, stone, plant material and statuary producing a statement of tranquility and civility.
