The Hedgerow Garden

     On the south side of the driveway is the Hedgerow Garden.  That name stems from the hedgerow that was there when the lot was purchased in 1969.  It consisted of small trees that grew up amongst a rock pile that divided farm fields.  The drive slopes up to the house, rising perhaps five feet, creating a slight sunken garden on the upper (west) end of the HG.  Six steps made of railroad ties connect the driveway turnaround to the HG.  I recently added a railing along those steps.
     A main pathway connects the drive to the steps, and two branch pathways lead to small moss gardens.  I added a terrace next to the steps in 2015, which mirrors the curve in the drive, and built a small moss garden there with Thuidium moss, shown in photos 8-10 (before the railings were added).
