Made in the shade
When your garden's got a cool out-door dining room, a shaded retreat, and a lush entertainment courtyard, taking a summer
vacation can be as simple as stepping out your own back door.
That's the idea behind landscape designer Patricia Wagner's plot in San Leandro, California. "I was asking a lot of my garden,"
says Wagner, who wanted outdoor spots to work, relax, and host intimate dinners as well as large, lively parties. Her garden
took just three weeks from design to completion ― "I knew what I needed," she says ― and she fit everything in by dividing
her 1,500-square-foot backyard into a series of rooms that flow easily into one another.
