Hello friends,
We have relocated to Long Island and have a completely different styled home. In Mass, I had a colonial and now I have a tudor. I want to build a potager this spring/summer but the great white picket fence enclosure that I had just won't go with this house. Any ideas? Also, my house sits sideways on the lot so my "backyard" is actually a side yard that can be seen from the street.

I browsed Tudor and potager. It seems like formally laid out potagers in the English style are fitting. A brick or stone walled garden would be very cool but big bucks. Here's a couple of links that might be helpful. These both show hedges or thick vertical posts with some kind of trellising in between.
Michelle: Thanks for the links. I like the idea of metal/iron fencing. The hedging would work too. Lots to think about. Oscar de la Renta's garden is beautiful.
luvbocelli: I had a very hard time leaving that garden. I hope to create something just as pretty but not as big. Thanks for the compliment.
