A green patio for summer

This very attractive patio near Granada, Spain has been designed to cool you down during the hottest months of a mediterranean summer. It's also very peaceful.
There's every shade of green in this patio. The pine cones stop weeds, keep in the moisture and add texture.

When you get close there are little surprises.....

and little treasures.

Patio designed by Nola Lyttle. To see more of Nola's work visit her blog.
