Congratulations to our March Yard of the Month: Hallie Byth at 630 Cortlandt

Hallie Byth bought 630 Cortlandt St. in 2016.  

She bought the house with a vision for the yard in mind, and she was able to bring the vision to life during several years of renovations. She moved in full-time in 2018, and with the help of KLM Landscaping Design, she was able to create a yard full of beautiful plants and flowers that compliment the historic bungalow. The landscaping design includes a mixture of elevations and modern steel components. The flora includes edible herbs and citrus trees that Hallie can use in her cooking throughout the year; in addition, she made sure to include yellow roses – a favorite from her childhood. Japanese Yews were put along the fence to provide some privacy. The landscaper, KLM Landscaping Design, changes out perennials twice a year to keep the yard looking colorful. Hallie also loves to add seasonal elements like pumpkins during the fall and poinsettias in the winter, all to frame the welcoming front porch! 

We would like to thank Another Place in Time for the great gift certificate honoring our March yard of the month recipient. Another Place in Time is located at 421 W. 11th St. at Tulane and is open Friday-Sunday.
