It is a pleasure to present Ray and LeAnne Worley at 3400 Country Hill Drive with the Beauty Spot Award for the month of June.

When you drive by Ray and LeAnne’s home you can’t help but pause and take a long look at the beautifully landscaped yard.  The Worley’s have been working on their yard for a number of years.  They had to deal with some water issues in the front and the back of the home.  They had French drains installed in the back, and in the front, they raised their flower beds and put in a swell to help with the water situation.  You can’t help but admire the raised beds which have stacked stone outlining them.  The swell is an added feature which actually accentuates the beds. You will also find some boulders throughout the landscaping.

On the eight side of the bed that is located across the entire front of the house, you will find a weeping Holly which anchors the corner of the bed.  In the center of the bed is a Japanese Maple and on the left side of the bed is a Pieris Japonica which is showing new growth.

Since the home is located on a corner lot, they have another bed that follows the corner with two native Dogwood trees with blooming Coreopsis underneath the trees.  On the lower side of the house, they have a very large Camillia which I am sure is gorgeous when in bloom.

On the right side of the driveway close to the porch you will find another bed with an attractive pot planted with a large hibiscus tree and lavender on the ground. 

Please take a look at Ray and LeAnne’s home.
