When Joe and Carole Dominick first set foot in Creekside, they knew they had found the perfect place to build their home. They were drawn to the peaceful charm of Autumn Flame, where the streets were quiet, and the atmosphere felt just right for the life they envisioned. With little traffic and the convenience of the new Brookstone gate off Thompson Mill Road, getting in and out of the neighborhood was easy, making it an ideal location for them.

But it wasn’t just the house that made it home—it was also the land around it, the outdoor space that would become an extension of their living area, waiting to be shaped into something extraordinary. When the time came to transform their yard, they turned to Heidi from Lady Landscape, who had a clear plan for bringing their yard to life. It was a monumental task, requiring five truckloads of dirt to reshape the terrain and a complete reimagining of the grass in the side and backyards. Over time, their yard transformed from a basic lawn into a well-planned landscape.

Carole enjoys seeing the garden change with the seasons. In spring, yellow irises and deep red roses add color to the yard. Day lilies, with their cheerful blooms, quickly become her favorites, their fleeting beauty a reminder to cherish each moment. Three new magnolia trees stand tall, their glossy green leaves whispering in the breeze, while azaleas, daisies, and ferns add layers of color and texture, wrapping the yard in a warm embrace.

Over time, the garden becomes a peaceful retreat. Carole often finds herself lingering among the flowers, waiting for the yellow snapdragons to bloom, feeling the anticipation of what each new season will bring. The scent of flowers fills the air, and the garden attracts bees and birds.

The Dominicks are thrilled with the transformation and eagerly share their positive experience with neighbors. Heidi's work goes beyond the initial landscaping, as she continues to breathe new life into their yard by carefully selecting annual flowers, ensuring there's always something fresh to admire. Her expertise has helped shape their yard into a thoughtfully designed outdoor space. Joe and Carole recommend choosing someone with strong referrals and taking the time to personally inspect their work.

When they sit by their pool listening to the water feature and take in the beauty of their new garden, they enjoy watching their pup, Madi, dash across the yard, chasing after squirrels that dare to venture too close. Seeing Madi enjoy the yard, Joe and Carole appreciate the work that has gone into making it a welcoming space. Their home is no longer just a house; it is a peaceful haven, a reflection of their love for nature, and a place where every bloom tells a story.

When Carole isn’t enjoying time in her yard, she volunteers at NGHS Braselton and loves being part of her neighborhood tennis teams. Meanwhile, Joe and Madi can be found on their daily morning walks. Wherever you might see these three, make sure you say hello!
