This project grew from a reimagining of the home’s architecture with Paul’s vision for a garden that is practical, yet enhances all element around it.

This is a progress and after shot. The area was cleared before the pathway and hydrangeas were established. On the bottom of the photos and off screen, is a rock staircase to a guest home, pool, spa, and courtyard.

A blossoming fruit orchard. Grape vines sit next to the outdoor dining room. There are citrus trees in pots and giant privacy hedges in the background. Project Name: “Provence in Ojai.” Landscape Design + Furniture Design by Paul Hendershot Design, Inc. paulhendershotdesign.com

A lavender field pathway in the direction of the guest home. Pollinators love to hang out, which helps our environment through the cross pollination of our plants, trees, and flowers. They support our ecosystem by pollinating food sources for other wildlife and humans.

We’re all connected, so take care of your home by using organic products that don’t kill wildlife. The use of pesticides poisons bees, as do insecticides. There’s even one that attacks their nervous system. Flying through treated areas exposes them to the chronic poisoning of their water and nectar. All of this damages the planet and our lives.

The goats and horses are now living their best lives in a clean and organic landscape. Apple trees are a foodscaping element the goats find especially pleasing. Project Name: “East Coast Style.” Landscape Design by Paul Hendershot Design, Inc. paulhendershotdesign.com

Courtyard trees are aligned in a way for style, but more importantly for shade during the hot summers in Ojai. We also have pea gravel as an excellent lawn alternative. It’s easy to walk on barefoot and pets find it comfortable. Landscape Design by Paul Hendershot Design, Inc. paulhendershotdesign.com

A hiking trail preserving very old oaks. This design looks beautiful without the need for a thirsty lawn, or other impracticalities that can further harm California’s drought situation and the environment through chemicals like pesticides. Planning a landscape doesn’t mean more is better. Sometimes retaining existing elements and enhancing them is the way to go.

Are you ready for an adult Easter egg hunt? There are 13 eggs hidden in this photo. Can you find them? Hints: some eggs are tiny and they’re all the same color. Good luck!

A custom swimming pool with a lounging area. Access is given from two sets of staircases connecting the driveway, around the back of the house, or from the inner courtyard. Project Name: “The Hummingbird House.” Landscape Design by Paul Hendershot Design, Inc. paulhendershotdesign.com
