Article Abstract:
Landscape design standards of the 1960s dictated the use of unsightly bushes to cover a house front. Following the advice of garden designer Jim Sines, Ed and Pat Hearle defied those standards by replacing the bushes with low, decorative shrubbery and a split-level yard in their home in Bethesda, MD.
