A handful of photographs from a typical season around the greenhouse.
32 feet of mixed perennials anchored by three redbuds and a stone bench. Designed and planted in two days.
Bee balm, milkweed, coneflower, mountain mint, and a small water dish. Tagged for monarch tagging in late summer.
Boxwood, oakleaf hydrangea, and creeping phlox. Tore out the old yews and replaced the soil down to 18".
Four raised cedar beds, drip irrigation, and a perimeter of marigolds. Family of five eats out of it all summer.
Eighteen serviceberries on six-foot centers. Spring bloom, summer fruit for the birds, blazing fall color.
Hostas, ferns, Japanese forest grass, and a winding flagstone path under a pair of old maples.
