The Perfect Carpet
A new room needed new carpet. Out went grass and junipers; in came annuals, perennials, bulbs, shrubs, and vines. Adding pavers,
gravel, a hedge, and a Japanese cryptomeria on one side created a microclimate significantly milder than Atlanta normally
is supposed to be. "I can grow all of my Mediterranean cooking herbs--thyme, winter savory, marjoram, rosemary, and bay,"
Anne says. She also grows chives and parsley.
