General
This garden's design was a joint project of Helen Page Wodell and Lois W. Poinier. The owners of this site on Minnisink Road wanted a garden that would be at its peak in spring and they weren't disappointed. In addition to beds of tulips, bleeding heart, and other flowers, dogwoods and various shrubs provided a bridge to surrounding trees. Large, natural rocks defined a pond adjacent to a small lawn.
Persons associated with the garden include: Helen Page Wodell (garden designer); Lois W. Poinier (garden designer); and Edward Bancroft Twombly and Mildred Hadra Twombly (former owners).
