Hearthstone’s January Yard of the Month Brightens Up the Neighborhood
In a season when most lawns fade into shades of gray and brown, one Hearthstone home is turning heads with a burst of unexpected winter color. The Hearthstone Garden Club has named its January 2026 Yard of the Month, honoring the Allen family’s beautifully maintained property at 7907 Virginia Water.
Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac, the two-story home is surrounded by a landscape that bursts with seasonal charm. Bright yellow snapdragons fill the front beds with warmth, bordered by rich purple pansies that add striking contrast. Delicate white alyssum forms a soft edge around the garden, tying it all together with both fragrance and finesse.

“The result is a welcoming, colorful yard that brightens the neighborhood and perfectly showcases how winter color can truly shine,” said Carol Pieranunzi, secretary of the Hearthstone Garden Club.
Each month, the Garden Club selects a home that reflects pride in ownership and a commitment to neighborhood beautification. The Allen family’s yard is a perfect example of how thoughtful planting—even in the cooler months—can turn heads and lift spirits.
