South Carolina Bakers Craft Botanical Paradise on James Island

On a South Carolina island lies a lush paradise crafted by the hands of two skilled bakers, Alejandro González and Jim Smeal. Nestled along the marshfront of James Island, their property boasts a vibrant tapestry of flora, from the rich greens of tractor seat plants to the golden hues of bromeliads. As the duo strolls through their botanical haven, they draw inspiration from the ever-changing marsh, where ibis and herons gracefully glide above the salty creeks, painting a picturesque backdrop.

This garden, unlike the traditional English-inspired retreats of Charleston, exudes a sense of controlled chaos, where palms interlace with bromeliads, and foxtail ferns dance alongside tall grasses. González and Smeal’s keen eye for design is evident in the “spiky garden,” a dedicated section showcasing pointy species like yucca rostrata and agave. Foliage reigns supreme here, painting a vivid tapestry that evolves with every passing season.
