JULY YARD OF THE MONTH
The Peterson home at 3971 Lafayette took the honors for this month’s Yard of the Month
David and Pat Peterson retired in 2019 and moved from Dallas to Fort Worth to be closer to their daughters and grandkids. “We are loving the Cultural District, our neighbors, and the laid back feel of Fort Worth, plus discovering all the wonderful restaurants,” they say.
They’ve revived not only their home, but also the yard. Whimsical statuary, a water feature and colorful pots of seasonal color animate the landscape. A hardy perennial stand of artemesia underneath a towering crepe myrtle didn’t appear to skip a beat after this winter’s severe cold snap.
All Yard of the Month winners receive a complimentary annual AHNA membership and a $25 gift certificate to Archie’s Gardenland. To nominate a yard, even your own, please send the address to president@arlingtonheightsna.com.
