The photographs in this slideshow were very kindly submitted by GardenWise reader, Anna Delaney.

Anna's photographs document the process by which her front and backyards have changed and evolved over the course of the last four to five years. Changes include the removal of the front lawn and planting of drought-tolerant plants and installing a functioning stream in the backyard.

Says Anna, "I hope these [photographs] will inspire other gardeners to just keep working at their garden (I've been at mine for 14 years),...a garden is ever changing, as the gardener changes!"

For her next project, Anna plans to create and add sculptural elements to her garden.

GardenWise Online thanks Anna for sharing her stunning photographs with us and wish her continued success with her garden!
