BRANDYWINE COTTAGE
(continued from the "about us" page)

The gardens closest to the house were developed first. This includes a raised bed that has became home to a number of small rarities that might have been lost in a larger setting, and the walled ruin, or rock garden, which first had to be cleared of tires, automobile fenders, and other accumulated junk left from years of neglect. The transformation of the overgrown hillside began about seven years ago. The under story on the hill was a six-foot-high tangle of invasive vines and shrubs which had to be cut down twice by hand before any planting could begin. Like all gardens this is a work in progress.
