Portland Heights Cutie

A Portland Heights cottage is thoughtfully updated with modern garden amenities, including an 800sf deck to maximize indoor/outdoor living and western territorial views. The Dasso deck and aluminum railing are selected for Class A fire resistance, sustainable sourcing, and weather resistance. A movable potted native tree collection can be reconfigured to provide shade and strategic screening - and are softened by a vibrant Smoke Bushes surround from below. And a front parkway is converted to a low-water, low-input pollinator haven, requiring mowing just once a month. In this “lawn”, wildflowers, clover and native grasses provide a base to a graceful Tupelo canopy.
