This was the third open garden we visited last weekend. The backyard is on a steep slope with well designed garden beds filled with many interesting plants. In the front yard was a Cercis, a Crimson forestry pansy tree, most unusual.
Some beautiful hanging baskets and potted plants on a terrace at the top of the backyard.

While I love seeing other people's gardens they actually depress me a little because I know I can't achieve anything like their beauty. All of my gardens have pretty much depended in the previous owners inspiration, or in the case of Burnbrae I hired a landscaper to help me.
I know what you mean. All of our gardens have similarly been the inspiration of previous owners. However, we have put our own stamp on things and maintained the upkeep so I always consider the garden to be "ours".
