Palm Drive —The planting design involved a careful selection process to ensure the chosen plant species thrive in low light under the shade of tall trees.
Palm Drive
A modern house made to stand out and at the same time blend in with its environment. The residence is framed by tall Anahaw trees and pruned shrubs. What’s inside is a different story - structured yet organic, the inner garden of this home showcases lush tropical greenery that thrive in low light conditions.

Plants in this home’s garden are thoughtfully chosen to be able to grow under the shadows of the tall Anahaw trees so as to not compromise in design. Broadleaf shrubs are planted between palms and ferns to provide some contrast, giving the walkways of this home a more refreshing view from the inside.
