This post adds a few photos of the gardens to give an overall idea of the layout of the property.  The lot is 150 feet wide by 300 feet deep, plus about 30 feet from the road edge to the property line in front.  The photos start in the front, then move around the lot in a clockwise manner, with a detour to the patio and Williamsburg Garden directly in back of the house.  Eventually, I plan to have a large album of photos posted for

viewing.
   Today, the first of March, it is snowing, though the last three days were in the 50s and 60s, allowing some early season cleanup--and planning for some new features which, it seems, I always seem to find (I hope that never stops).
