West Garden
Inglewylde
Welcome to Inglewylde. Step through a wattled archway foraged from the wyldes of Charlotte, Tennessee. Follow the serpentine hedge where spring ephemerals and a mossy stumpery of ferns and woodland perennials beckon you and any passing creature. The heart of this garden is also its hearth. Once a standard of every English Cottage, the classic Inglenook invites the traveler with warmth and shelter. Buddy Jackson’s contemplative sculpture kneels before a reflecting pool, almost as if to quell the intruding chaos, for at least a moment, fostering peace and harmony.

Natural Creations, LLC
Natural Creations, LLC, founded in 1998 by University of Tennessee Ornamental Horticulture graduates Matt Dawson and John Henderson, began as a full-service landscaping company in Middle Tennessee. Early success came with a large commercial maintenance contract, enabling the company to expand into residential installations and gain recognition for quality work in Nashville’s Belle Meade area.
To address clients’ needs for reliable landscape maintenance, the company hired Paul Ballenger, whose expertise and passion elevated their services. Natural Creations expanded further, offering crane work, grading, drainage, consulting, and exceptional maintenance tailored to plant and turf care.
With a focus on employee education and service excellence, Natural Creations continues to create and maintain some of Middle Tennessee’s most beautiful landscapes.
