General

Autumn view of stairway. Southern Living Magazine, 5-1983. "The garden was designed in 1938. It was a sunny setting then and planted with annuals and flowering shrubs. Today, the garden is in the shadow of mature oaks with shade-loving platns and a small lawn nestled betweenthe canopy. Near easter, Delaware Valley White and Pink Pearl azaleas begin a pink and white flower show of flowers that lasts through the spring. Southern Living, May 1983."
