Garden of the Day: PLG Make-Over
[nggallery id=”21210″ template=galleryview] The first submission for Garden of the Day comes straight outta PLG. When the owners bought the house four years ago, the back yard was nothing more than concrete and chain-link fencing.

The first submission for Garden of the Day comes straight outta PLG. When the owners bought the house four years ago, the back yard was nothing more than concrete and chain-link fencing. (Check out the last photo in the slideshow for that “before” shot along with a view of the deck mid-construction.) “The rocks for the wall we got from a neighbor renovating their basement,” writes the owner. “The ground in the center has crushed bluestone and the borders have our perennials and some ornamental trees. We are starting some roses and honeysuckle on the arbor.” Sweet!

If someone doesn’t like a neighborhood, why shouldn’t they be able to voice this opinion? I’m inclined to agree that Lefferts is a pretty miserable place. I harbor no ill will toward its residents and I don’t mean to offend anyone. I just think Lefferts stinks. Is that so wrong?
Can anyone explain to me why someone would post about a neighborhood being “craptacular,” or “lousy???” This kind of posting behavior is borderline pathological. The number of mental illnesses displayed here every day is astonishing.
Darn nice garden, by the way. Congratulations.
What a great backyard space in such a wonderful part of Brooklyn–is this in Lefferts Manor? I love that area.
13:54 you are a pathetic person really a sad sample of how low we humans can get. Date more and improve your life. The owners of this great garden are enjoying themselves and i thank them for sharing this beautiful space.
1.07 – so you’re ok correcting a German about incorrect use of an exclamation mark but you take offense at someone correcting you on incorrect use of the word arbor?
Sounds like you got a trellis up your
2.12 – I object to your strident tone…
Strident? – dude you are way off. You might want to take an email etiquette course and become more contemporary with your understanding.
Was it obvious to everyone else that there would be dooooshbags like 1:54 & 11:39 chiming in and undercutting the convo?
STFU and enjoy the garden tours!
One of the main reasons we moved to an ‘undesirable’ neighborhood (besides the fact I couldn’t afford brownstone living) was that we wanted to enjoy a backyard.
This backyard looks very pleasant. Good use of space. And once the pergola get’s filled in with greenery, it will be even more pleasant.
Enjoy your summer PLG’ers!
