Joannaemmons's Side Porch garden

Created on Tuesday, 10 Jun 08

This is one of the oldest surviving gardens on my property. I try to plant pink here, and it’s filled with a mix of delicate and protected plants and sturdy spreading plants. It’s a battle! I use fencing to delineate the “war front” and do my best at peacemaking.

Garden Type: Cottage | Sun: Partial Sun | Soil: Combination
