Garden and the Good Life

My Garden Through the Seasons

My own garden had serious erosion problems which I solved by removing invasive trees, terracing with their trunks and planting a green wall. While always a work-in-progress, my garden starts flowering in early March and continues to delight me until November.  Winter interest showcases seed pods, mottled bark, red stems and evergreens.  Scroll down to see before and after pictures.
