Designed with Celeste Umpierre Architects, this rooftop garden features a simple palette of just a few carefully curated plants repeated in swaths to follow the clean lines of the architectural elements that define the space. Espaliered Hornbeams are the gem of the planting design visually lowering the height of a massive brick wall, while fitting
into a narrow footprint next to a staircase.
Fragrant Korean Spice Viburnum, Lavender and Star Jasmine waft through the air at staggered seasonal bloom times. A muted palette of lilac colored blooms and white flowers keep things simple in the spring and summer exploding into reds and orange fall foliage then settling into the stripped bare espaliered tree forms and colorful bark of Coral Bark Maples for winter interest.
