View of My Front Garden

Just a quick post while I am on vacation.  It's not even a real post but both Alistair and David have asked to see a wider view of my garden so here is a link to the front of the house within the perimeter fence.

 

 

Click here to see my front garden.  Then left click and hold to move around.

Thanks Mark and Gaz!

Very nice house and landscape. I like the idea where your garden is at...even when you're inside the house you can still have a view of the garden.

April 28, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterhardinars

Wow! It's great to see your house and garden together like that. I don't know how you did the 360 photo, but it is fabulous.

Absolutely fabulous, and how clever is that.

May 2, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAlistair

You have a stunning front entrance. I love the stone on the walls with the tile work on the floor. The lush tropicals set it off beautifully.

May 4, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterPatty

@ hardinars: Yes, I can see the plants from any place in the front half of the house. I still have plants on both sides of the house but not as much as in the front.


@ David and Alistair: Thanks. Glad you guys liked it. I used a 360 iPhone app to do it but you might be able to stitch photos taken with your own camera using online software.


@ Patty: Thank you. Maybe my entrance is just photogenic. :-D

Very well use of space Bom! You have an amazing home :-D

May 6, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterStephanie

Fantastic Bom - really enjoyed doing the 360! I love all that foliage.

May 8, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterRosie leavesnbloom

Wow, I'm so lucky to get a glimpse of your beautiful home while you go on vacation. Hope you have a great time!

May 8, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAutumn Belle

what a great photo, how you did it technically is a mystery to me too. The house and garden look very attractive, it all fits together so well. Enjoy your holiday.

May 15, 2012 | Unregistered Commentercatmint

Beautiful frontyard! Would like to visit :).

May 16, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterDiana

aloha bom,

wow, i loved that 360 panorama, very cool and your front yard is lush and beautiful.regarding the central bed, yes its a dykia, but unfortunately it wasn't labled...i love how grassy it looks, but its deadly sharp :)

May 22, 2012 | Unregistered Commenternoel

I didn't manage to make it go round but I did zoom up and down. Extraordinary experience, suddenly being lifted above the roof. Such an elegant, exotic place to live!

May 23, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterEsther Montgomery

Really a stunning view! Congrats!!!

May 23, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterdona

I love it! Your house and garden are integrated so well, and I love the tiles in front. Very nice panoramic view!

May 23, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterdebsgarden

May 24, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterIsland Threads

What a beautiful house and garden, Bom! I loved the 360 panorama. Your garden is breathtaking. I'm now determined to work harder with my plants after seeing yours! I also love the stone wall...the entire look is gorgeous!!
