La Dolce Vita The potager or kitchen garden was recently transformed into a cutting, herb and rose garden. “It is our absolute favorite space at the moment,” says Marcy Sands. “We adore seeing it grow and change. The flowers are much more satisfying to us.” The new garden spills over with roses, sage, verbena, day lilies and herbs with the architectural folly offering a dramatic backdrop to the garden while the simple fountain in the middle anchors the entire space. “Paul Fields is creative, talented, and so easy to work with,” said Marcy Sands. “He listens and can see your vision, or present you with one that ties all of your ideas together in a thoughtful, beautiful way.” In a fantastic collaboration to create a timeless garden, Paul Fields’ vision and attention to detail in every part of the garden and Marcy and Steve Sands’ love of beauty made it possible to create a breathtakingly beautiful and exquisite Italian garden in the middle of Highland Park. n Paul Fields, ASLA Lambert’s Landscape Company 214-350-8350 94 PEACHY
