At a private residence in San Francisco, Ron Lutsko uses Prunus caroliniana as the backbone of the garden. Contained by steel, it is hedged into walls that enclose outdoor rooms.
Prunus caroliniana is tall enough to provide a solid privacy barrier and its dense foliage makes it well-suited as a wind, noise and visual screen. It is also very adaptable to shearing. It has a bright and clean appearance and unobtrusive white flowers. For all these reasons, this plant is a no-brainer for the modern garden.
