An Iowa Garden: Field Trip

Field Trip

My garden madness may be partly hereditary; I went to visit my sister, Dorothy, who lives about 80 miles north of us; this shows the front of her house. She has built a house on our old family homestead of 5 acres of wooded land, with a small creek running through it. The property is now smack dab in the middle of town, so is quite the oasis, and she has filled her yard with flowers, ablaze with color even in late summer; some more pictures of her garden follow.
