Maximalism has been the dominant philosophy in landscaping for a few years now; the more flowers, grasses, and wild plants, the better. People have been outfitting their patios like living rooms, and, to be honest, it's a bit much.
Zooey Deschanel and Jonathan Scott's backyard offers a pared-back alternative. We spotted the minimalist garden in the background of a recent Instagram post from Jonathan with their sprawling greenery in the background. The space features a brick patio flanked by tiny hedges. Trees in the middle and side of the yard offer privacy and shade.
