This will be a 2-3 year endeavor. Stage one of 2003 was just to get my plants from the apartment moved into the ground. See photos from last year.

The first level is almost complete and we're now starting on level two.
On the left of the first level are purple coneflower, wild rose, peonies,
wild geranium, snow-in-summer, spiderwort, houseleeks, heather, and dianthus. To the right are giant hyssop, chives, lupine, and concord grape (which survived the winter after last fall's transplant!)
Level two will become home to Jeff's collection of tea roses.
