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!
Submit Your Garden for ‘Garden of the Day’ [Brownstoner]
1:54 people like you are why so many here use words like ^%*^ and #$#$%^. Do you check into that clinic often??
I bet if you had a yard like that you wouldn’t be such a bitter %$%^ &*^^%
What good is a garden like this if you’re doomed to living in the craptacular neighborhood of PLG? A methodone clinic in your backyard would be more practical.
Nice retreat!
Mr. B, please suggest guidelines for submissions.
OOooooh, so beautifull! I want!!!!
GREAT GARDEN! GREAT NEIGHBORHOOD!

I used to work with a someone who came over from Germany who used exclamation points all over their emails do denote a light hearted tone. They were very grateful when I told them that it actually denotes a strident tone rather than a light hearted one.
Love it!
Can you get a Q&A with the owner somehow? Seems others have questions that I was thinking and would love to get their feedback.
Great new addition to this site. Thank you.
Did you leave the existing concrete and put the crushed bluestone on top of it or did you jack hammer it out and then just add the bluestone after?
From your perrenial borders it looks like your a reasonably skilled gardener. Why did you choose so much hardscape?
11.28 – why so touchy – there was an exclamation mark, clearly light-hearted.
