This corner lot in East Van was transformed from a neglected terrain overtaken by weeds and an uneven rocky surface. We excavated, levelled, and hardscaped before planting this sanctuary with native species, pollinator zones and a custom garden bed and arbor. This garden is low maintenance, climate resilient, and predominantly evergreen, complete with a bee turf alternative lawn.
