Williamsburg Garden
|
|
This garden is a centerpiece
on our property. It was the Master
Gardener Project designed and entirely installed by husband, Patrick- down to
the last brick on the pathway. No wonder
we are so proud of our Williamsburg Garden!
|
|
Following the Colonial Style
of gardening, the beds are very symmetrical, enclosed by brick walkways. The inside of the fence in lined with
boxwood. Outside the fence there are
shrub roses on one side and peonies and espalied apple trees on the
other. The garden is planted with a
variety of herbs and perennial flowers.

Notice the two trellises,
one is covered with a hops vine, the other by a grapevine. You should, therefore sit under the
appropriate trellis while enjoying your favorite beverage!

Tending the Colonial Garden
showed the skill of the gardener of the day by maintaining order and symmetry
in the wild, untamed new land.
