GARDENS
Anne’s favorite areas are the two allées
and the pool. “I like symmetry and
basic colors,” she relates. “I also like
the simple landscape design at the
front of the house.”
“Anne was fantastic to work with,”
says Blair. “She knew what she wanted
and has a great eye. This is absolutely
one of my favorite projects.”
Future projects include a pergola and
pool house. Anne, who clearly has a
passion for gardening, also wants to
add peonies and azaleas throughout,
plus more daffodils in the front. “I
would also love to have a shade gar-
den that can handle flooding in the
way back. It will always be a work in
progress,” Anne says. She also looks
ahead to welcoming grandchildren one
day, perhaps replacing the bench in the
redbud allée with a play set. Truly a
garden for the ages—and for all ages—
the Schleusners’ private retreat will
delight them for years to come. n
