Architects’ Roundup: 10 Emerald Green Gardens

March 15, 2015

Though there’s green in nearly every garden, we love it when the color gets a solo show. Here, we gathered ten gardens, mostly from members of the Remodelista + Gardenista Architect/Designer Directory featuring shades of green, front and center.
