I would probably replace the Valentines Day potters with two trees and clear the hedges from around the fountain to make it more visible for anyone driving into the mansion. Also make the pathway to the patio more cohesive, using the same plants or two different, not four different.

Again, those are just a few things I would do to clean it up.

Nice design. Maybe add some flowers. That should make it look more natural. Content wise it won't seem as crowded (counter intuative i know)
just my thoughts :wink:

Totally agree. You will be surprised how a little landscaping can make it all come together.

Wow! Is that something you did menace?

here's an update of what i've done. probably going to remove the trees and make the path to the gazebo more rounded...
